This is an interesting thread. I have read most of your responses and I seem to have a different take on this.
Steve jobs is a revolutionary thinker. His products are basically ruling the world. This is why I can see some people mentioning Browning, Colt, Glock, etc...
However, The way I see it, is that Steve Job's products, although fun and useful, are way overpriced. They are also very limited in functionality (you have to do what job says, as his products cannot be modified or compatible with other type of products.
The only way there could be a Steve Jobs in the gun industry, is a company putting out a gun that completely dominates the gun world, is chambered in a caliber only "Jobs" sells, no reloading components for it, and be way overpriced. The comapny would not let any other company develop something for their gun, and re-release the same stuff every year, with only slight changes in a successful effort to sell the same stuff over and over again.
Until that happens, there really is no Steve Jobs of the gun world. There are however, great innovators such as Browning, Colt and Glock...
