lever anon im glad you're thread is going strong
can you perhaps expound upon the strategic role of lever action rifles in the american indian wars?
particularly how they were acquired in numbers by the indians which i understand led to them having an advantage in certain engagements
wasn't the battle of the little bighorn won by superior indian lever action fite power apposed to the single shot trap door rifle the cav troops mostly had?
i dont know if that's right
also weren't lever actions deployed in numbers during the civil war?
what difference did that make if any?
