"The good people of this world are very far from being satisfied with each other and my arms are the best peacemakers." Samuel Colt, who — on this day in 1836 — was granted a patent for his revolver firearm. The Colt revolver transformed the American West, arming settlers, lawmen, and outlaws alike with a dependable six-shooter that could fire repeatedly before needing a reload, thus rewriting the rules of engagement and becoming an enduring symbol of frontier justice and adventure. |
