The gun collection use to be in an old hotel, but several years ago it was moved to its own seperate site. It is really fascinating if you are a gun nut. Plan to spend at leasts a couple of hours there if you stop off. A couple of hours is a whirlwind visit for a real gunnut. Just ask anyone in town and they can tell you where it is. I don't have the address, but Claremore isn't a very big town. If you come through Tulsa, Gilcrease museum is a great place to visit. It's just off I-244 (412) on the West side of downtown Tulsa and anyone coming from that direction will go right by it.Watch for Gilcrease Museum exit just after you pass through downtown Tulsa going west. It has a snack bar with buffalo burgers, but its main attraction is western artifacts and paintings and sculpture by Remington and other artists of note. Two hours at least to see most of it. They have the biggest collection of points I have ever seen, located in the basement area of the museum. If you continue west on I-244 (412) you will pass through Sand Springs. Be sure to wave at me when you go through but don't blink or you will miss it ! Monty
