Sorry 'bout that...there's little regard in Connecticut for the GREAT legacy of gun manufacturing in this state, let alone how influential Colt was to Hartford and the world. PFFT!

I just thought Civil War buffs would be interested in this find...like so many things *Colt* the uniform will probably get stolen and go missing for a few more generations.

[Nutmegers also hate the Courant ..it's the only game in town since the demise of the *Hartford Times* which occasionally offered a different view point.]

Thanks for posting this article. Even with the obvious bias, it’s pretty cool to see the pictures of Col. Colt’s uniform.
