The Museum Of Aviation in Warner Robins/RAFB has a really good WWII gun collection in the main building along with their paratrooper/Normandy invasion exhibit. It's free but they ask for a donation. Really cool place to kill 8-10hrs if you like planes, also.

The Infantry museum at Ft. Benning is fantastic.
Come on a Friday at 10am and watch the latest batch of Infantrymen graduate on the parade field. |

Check out the Berman museum in Alabama. Then go on to Barbers

I've done staff rides at both Chickamauga and Andersonville / Ft Sumter and both had a pretty respectable collection of Civil War stuff if my memory is correct.

Visit Camp Curahee and then hit the Military Museum downtown to make good day of it.

I'm not aware of anything on par with the museum in Claremore or the one at Wooloroc.

Thanks for the recommendations!
And, yes, the J.M. Davis and Wool-o-roc collections are a really high bar to beat. Wish I could have visited each of them again before we moved but life happens. |

I stopped in Claremore with intentions of hitting the Davis museum, but it was closed. I was able to see it a few years ago. I did have some Braum's though. |

J.M. Davis is probably the best least known gun museum in America. It's also one of the few that is all guns, all the time. I've been more times than I have fingers and would go again at the drop of a hat.
Wool-o-roc is just a mind blower. They have so much interesting stuff to see, gun and otherwise, I usually recommend people try to plan a multiple day trip if possible to see it all. Sure you can zip through it in a day but you'll miss a lot. You got me missing those two places and I've only left the state a few months ago. |

I went back to visit a couple of times in the mid-90s, and then it was 2016 before I visited again, but I have been able to make at least one visit a year since then. I lived in Tulsa, but most of my visits these days take me to the Shawnee area or are driving through on I-40. I'm hoping to visit the panhandle soon. |

All of their stores are within a radius that allows the delivery drivers to make their runs and be home with their families each evening. Springfield, MO, and Dallas are as far out as they go. |

Not a must see, but if you need to kill an hour on the Marietta square there's a gun room upstairs in the Marietta History Museum between the square and the railroad tracks. And if you happen to be staying at Barnsley Gardens (hoping you're there for the Sporting Clays), the old homestead has a room downstairs with some Civil War era guns. I doubt many visitors even know it's there.
