Heading to Pensacola to my sons Air Force graduation from pilot training.

Proud moment for you.

Congrats to your son and you! Fantastic collection. Did the numbers next to the guns correspond to an ID key or info sheet?

Is that BP Maniac in the picture on the right?

I can tell you that it is not BP Maniac in the picture.

I await with bated breath . . .

Extremely nice. Be kind enough to share more.

Just returned from a 10 day excursion in Peru. Now of course we did all the tourist stuff looking at rocks etc.... However the biggest surprise on my last day was this museum outside Lima! I have traveled all over the world touring primarily weapons museums. This one is the the most incredible I have ever seen. This is probably the largest private collection historic firearms anywhere in the world. It took me over two hours to photograph all the black powder firearms. I would like to share pictures here, however there may be some other arms mixed in. The museum is laid out that way. I am not sure the moderators will allow me to post pictures of specific guns with a other guns mixed in? In my opinion the historical significance of this collection warrants a trip down just for this collection.

Spent six months in South America in 1984 with some time in Peru. Wonderful country. Glad you enjoyed it.
