What a fascinating biography. I don't watch much TV, but a Colt biopic would interest me. I enjoyed the article. Thanks for an "early life" section done right.
I didn't know Samuel Colt had such a colorful history, so yes, a biopic would be fun. On the more serious side, his introduction of interchangeable parts revolutionized manufacturing. What worked for his revolvers got applied to everything, paving the way to mass production. Imagine the cost of a hand-built car, every pushrod, gear, and manifold fabricated by hand.
