(UMC) was originally formed, by Marcellus Hartley, to provide firearms and ammunition to the Union Army during the U.S. Civil War. UMC was later reincorporated in the city of Bridgeport, Connecticut in 1867. UMC began to sell unloaded brass shotshells in 1868, which is said to be the first commercially available shotshell in the USA. Twenty years later, in 1888, UMC began to sell loaded shotshells.
