Daryl, you are really missing out if you haven't seen the Petersen Room yet. I took a couple of friends over last week and we probably spent more than an hour just in that room. It is the greatest display of shotguns that I can imagine anywhere. The .410s are astounding.
Spent a rainy afternoon out there today. What a spectacular addition to the museum. Its especially impressive when you consider how many high quality Peterson collection guns are currently floating around the market. The full collection must have kept a lot of dealers and auction houses in business for a few decades! I like the way they've set up the new section. The guns are much easier to see and appreciate than in the old fine gun room where the Parker Invincibles are displayed.
