The front take down pin on early colts was a different size than the rest of the industry. Other than that they are all the same.

Nope, the Colt AR15s also required 2 screwdrivers to unscrew. At that time they weren't the push-pin type as in todays upper & lower receivers.

The Colts also had different diamenter hammer and sear/disconnector pins in the fire control mechanism, than the M16 and the Bushmaster, Armalite etc

I don't personally know right off-hand, but they are a larger diameter. The nice people at Bushmasters do. Email them and tell'em you saw their ad in AR15.com ask this same question, they would know, or call'em on their 800 number.
