Marking its seventh year at END of TRAIL, NRA Museums staff will once again bring out a number of classic and memorable firearms for a pop-up NRA Firearms Museum experience on site. The exhibit will be open to the general public in one of the permanent buildings located on the historic Old West street that runs through the center of Founders Ranch.
