Palm Beach Arms Collectors
Palm Beach Arms Collectors is a not-for-profit organization dedicated to the preservation and collection of historical firearms by its members. We support Second Amendment rights and are affiliated with the National Rifle Association and the CMP (Civilian Marksmanship Program). Some of the proceeds from our gun shows and events are used to support Friends of the NRA in south Florida.
Our meetings are held from 7 to 9 PM on the 3rd Wednesday of every month at the Finlandia House, 301 W. Central Blvd., Lantana, Florida 33462.
Each month a member of the club or guest delivers an informative presentation about historical firearms or related subjects.
All firearms must be unloaded and secured with a plastic tie at our security desk.
We also host regular trips to the range with club members as well as an annual white elephant auction and a Christmas dinner.
