George (Lander), my post was directed at George Purtill. You get a pass, not knowing the locals up this way.
Colt is now located in West Hartford, and I'm not entirely sure, but don't think they do anything at the old Colt plant in Hartford. The Big Blue dome is still atop the building, and the prancing horse is back up there, but, sadly, I think the heart of the company has moved on.

Ah yes..The blue onion dome and the rampant colt. I love that old building. I convinced I was born 100 years too late.

Sorry George, I know this is a serious post for you. I just couldn't resist. *wink*

No problem Destry. It was not at all "serious" in that I seldom get "serious" about anything save eating, drinking & sleeping anymore.
I do remember when my ship was leaving Recife, Brazil after the Santa Maria Cruise Ship hijacking that a good many of my shipmates (fortunately I was not one of them) had to be "treated" for the "clapp"

That's O.K. Edgar. At times I also get confused as to who I am.
