This video delves into the story of R.L. Wilson, a prominent figure in the firearms collecting community, particularly known for his extensive work with Colt firearms in the 1970s and 80s. Wilson, who authored several books and was a significant dealer and appraiser, is highlighted for his alleged betrayal of trust. The central focus is the 'trade of the century,' where Wilson reportedly defrauded the Connecticut State Library museum out of 290 firearms in exchange for only 8 guns and a cane, with some of the exchanged firearms later found to be stolen or questionable fakes. The video encourages viewers to explore further details through C&Rsenal's Patreon and available state police files.
