"First time visit. Staff at the museum was knowledgeable and very helpful. Went around the corner to the Lock & Dam bar and watched the Army/Navy game. Super fun and great atmosphere."

"The new remodel made this museum so much better. Will be going back. There's a ton of information and it's very well set out on a timeline."

"Just a superb place. Exactly what I had hoped for. FYI: it’s big so give yourself an hour plus. This is specifically about the museum; the Arsenal is amazing as well. Plenty of free parking and clean bathrooms."

"Interesting Museum with lots of history about US Army munitions. You will need to get a pass at security. We went during the week and it too about 20 minutes. The museum is not open every day so you should look at the web site to make sure its open."

"Great collection of Firearms! Plan extra time to get cleared through the visitors center. They perform a background check. Also you need to use the Moline entrance on to the island the one on the west end is closed."
