The NRA Foundation’s ever-popular Wall of Guns returns to the Great American Outdoor Show this year thanks to Weatherby, the official Wall of Guns sponsor. Located at booth 39 in the complex’s main hallway, the event will run each day of the show. At $10 a ticket, a winner is drawn for every 100 tickets sold and may choose a firearm from more than 40 different makes and models displayed on “The Wall.” There are several different ticket packages, ranging from $10 to $1,000, some of which include a limited-edition Wall of Guns T-shirt, donated by Nine Line Apparel. All net proceeds from the Wall of Guns will benefit The NRA Foundation, the country’s leading charitable organization in support of the shooting sports.
In February 2024, more than 180 winners walked away with their chosen firearm from the Wall of Guns. With over 40 models to choose from, popular selections included the Henry Golden Boy .22 LR with NRA logo; the Taurus 1911 .45 ACP Mil Spec OD Green with NRA grips; the Weatherby Element Bottomland OG 12 gauge; and the Kimber K6xs .38SPL.
The Great American Outdoor Show celebrates the cherished outdoor traditions of millions of Americans and their families. Spanning 650,000 square feet, the event showcases over 1,000 exhibitors, including top shooting manufacturers, outfitters, boat and RV dealers, hunting and fishing retailers, and much more.
