I read these reviews and wanted to see the surrey with the fringe on top, so we stopped by. I am not a gun person and know very little about them. However, I was quite impressed. First of all was the huge volume of guns – 14, 000 I think they said. Secondly were some famous outlaw guns like Bonnie... More

There are rifles from many eras, black power guns, rare Colts and Winchesters, and guns belonging to past outlaws. There are also knives, swords and... More

I've been here a time or two growing up and was awe struck by it when I was a kid. Now with kids of my own and grandkids, it's still awe inspiring. I agree with some who get bored, but it's not the museum's fault. I have a passion for guns and it is still overwhelming. I appreciate the fact... More

The JM Davis Museum has a huge variety of collectibles! My favorite section is the outlaws, as well as the steins and political collection. Don't miss it!

Been there a few times and, although I am not a gun enthusiast, the museum is very interesting. Even my wife and kids enjoyed it.

What a place....if you are just passing thru or if you have some time to kill, you simply must visit...the history alone is worth it even if you are not a gun person...they have so much more than just guns....do yourself a favor and check it out
