Our notes

Pima Air & Space Museum is one of the largest aerospace museums in the world, with more than 350 aircraft on about 80 acres next to Davis-Monthan Air Force Base. It is not a gun museum, but the aircraft armament, from turret guns to cannon, makes it a natural stop on any Tucson firearms trip.
