If you like to look at 500 versions of the same gun.
My father, my brother in-law and I went. My father is a former police officer, former Army infantryman, former Federal LEO and firearms instructor. I've had a decent amount of firearms training from the US Army and a Federal Agency. None of us were really impressed. It was more of "this guys collection" and "this guys collection". Yes, there were a few cool items to look over, but not worth the time spent to hunt them down.

Admission is free, but not enough bang for no bucks?

I drive by their building a few times a month. I keep moving and try to avoid eye contact.

Looks like it would be a fun way to kill a couple of hours.
They have some historically significant pieces on their website.

I like looking at massed collections of guns, and I am known to be a "liberal".

Those who call themselves "conservatives" like to imagine that they have all the guns. I prefer to let them go on ahead imagining that.

Sounds like a cool place to visit, but I bet NSA has a list of visitors there that they furnish to Homeland Security as "potential terrorists"

I used to live in Fairfax, VA (back when I worked for the GOP). Never knew it existed, too busy fighting the good fight!
