Sam Colt lived in a mansion on a hill in Hartford, Connecticut, overlooking the original factory complex. The mansion is still there, but it hasn't been in the Colt family for a long time.
Sam Colt died suddenly and unexpectedly, and since he owned a gun factory I would surmise it's highly unlikely that he either had a personal gunsmith (he had several hundred of them working for him) or needed a secret firing range.
