Armor at the Castlerock Museum

Just open again for the 2012 season, this place is brilliant. The museum is the brainchild of Gary Schlosstein, the fifth generation to live in the area. He began his life as a collector at age ten when he bought a Civil War-era musket and has not stopped since. He and his partners do a phenomenal job of telling a good story about the evolution of arms and armor from the Roman Empire to the cusp of the gun powder era.
