This museum is loaded with interesting historical objects far too many
to list. It occupies an entire city block, so there's plenty to see. It
came to be after J. M. Davis decided to find a permanent home for his
world famous collection of guns and more. In 1965 he transferred it to
a foundation which together with the state constructed the museum to display
the collection to the public. The museum has over 20,000 firearms and
other historical artifacts.
Yet another Will Rogers Highway marker stands near the driveway entrance
to the museum in honor of Will Roger's life and ledgend, this one placed
in 2001.
