Synopsis
Featuring specially drawn full-color artwork and drawing upon first-hand accounts, this is the engaging story of the "Trapdoor" Springfield, one of the defining weapons of the American Indian Wars from the Hayfield Fight to the Little Bighorn and beyond, and a favorite of collectors today., Intended to replace the proliferation of different small arms fielded by US forces during the American Civil War, the "Trapdoor Springfield" was designed in 1865-66 by Erskine S. Allin. Using metallic cartridges, it could be loaded in a single action, increasing the number of shots per minute as much as fivefold. The new weapon quickly proved its worth in two separate incidents in August 1867: small groups of US soldiers and civilians armed with the trapdoor repulsed numerically superior Native American contingents. A simple and cost-effective weapon, it was used, along with its variants in every US conflict in the three decades after the Civil War, especially on the American frontier. Drawing upon first-hand accounts from US soldiers, their Native American opponents, and users such as buffalo hunters, this is the story of the "Trapdoor Springfield," one of the defining weapons of the Indian Wars., Intended to replace the proliferation of different small arms fielded by US forces during the American Civil War, the "Trapdoor Springfield" was designed in 1865-66 by Erskine S.

Drawing upon first-hand accounts from US soldiers, their Native American opponents, and users such as buffalo hunters, this is the story of the "Trapdoor Springfield", one of the defining weapons of the Indian Wars., The Springfield trapdoor breech-loader began service as a cost-cutting conversion using the mountains of surplus rifle-muskets left over after the American Civil War. Adopted in 1865, for the next quarter-century both rifles and carbines based on this concept increment ally improved over time, and served as standard arms for the US Army. This dependable, hard-hitting, all-weather, single-shot weapon was carried by the US infantry and cavalry on hundreds of frontier engagements from the Great Plains to the Mexican border and beyond. When the United States entered the world stage as an international power during the war with Spain in 1898, the tried-and-true veteran had its swansong. Written by a historian who has spent a half-century researching and writing about the post-Civil War Us Army, this study weaves the narrative of the Springfield trapdoor's development and impact into the larger story of westward expansion in the United States.
