NRA museum visit in VA started with a car guy!

[Syleng1]

So summer of 2017 (July 6th to be exact) I took my sons to the NRA museum in Fairfax, Va. and what I did not know was it majorly donated from a car guy. Well cars and guns go together. Mr Robert E. Peterson the creator or Hot Rod and many other magizines for cars and hunting and guns donated not only his collection of personal weapons and guns to the museum but a lot of money to house them and display them properly for all to see. It was a great tour and was even free to the public. Here are some of the pictures we took while here.
Enjoy- Joe

There was a ton more of stuff too see. The tour was about 1hr then we spent another hour walking back around to see it all again. There is a shooting range here for a cost you can fire different weapons and just a lot of history starting at the first hand cannons to the most modern guns. A lot of Hollywood movie guns and weapons from the movies and we had a great time. Thanks for looking.

Thank you,
A lot of guns or weapons are portrayed as dangerous or bad by the media- yet not one gun in the whole building hurt myself or my sons.
It's a part of history, our history as American's and other Nations.
One of our highlights being around our Nation's Capitol. Very humbling and Patriotic at the same time.
