Not open to the public but displayed inside CIA headquarters are artifacts from decades of intelligence gathering, including drones disguised as insects, a pigeon camera and Osama bin Laden's AK-47.
The
“coolest museum you’ll never see” has a new piece de resistance – the
gun found next to the body of Osama bin Laden in Pakistan when Navy
SEALs killed him in a midnight raid.
The AK-47 is a recent addition to a collection that’s among the
toughest tickets in the country for museumgoers. Tucked into various
hallways at CIA headquarters in Langley, Va., the museum displays the
gadgets, artifacts and trophies of 70 years of spycraft, from World War
II through the War on Terror. Closed to the public, it had only been
visited by employees and invited guests until NBC News recently became
the first news organization allowed to bring in video cameras.
