    That was a great explanation of Civil War carbines. Doing relic hunter in Middle TN in later battles I find more burnsides, in earlier find more sharps

    You guys go onto the field with Carbines? Can you guys come visit our Civil War organization in Washington and tell our Cav to do that?

    Excellent video, I found a Burnside in a river. I've searched far and wide for photographs of soldiers holding the Burnside Carbine in the field and have not found any. I have found posed photos, but none in "action." Thanks for the video. It was very informative. I had no idea there were so many different carbines.

    I have found early letters saying that the Burnside was the preferred carbine by many. Interesting so little were produced.

    The 15th Kansas Volunteer Cavalry Regiment entered service on 16 October 1863. The first surviving weapons were Hall's carbines and sabers whose numbers were inadequate, and the former were particularly worthless and were considered army committees. With these were about half of the regiment armed - that is, for a total of more than eleven hundred men, the regiment received only six hundred and sixty-six rusty Hall's carabiners which were useless.
    Only in the spring was the regiment, equipped with the support of Senator Jim Lane with Sharps carbines

    It was the Sharps absolutely, on both sides. After 1863, it was the Spencer on the Union side. But many units still preferred the Sharps. For Johnny Reb, it was still the Sharps and their Enfields

    Great video's I have learned alot. I am trying to get into the hobby & am a horse owner. I would like to see something on tack. Watched video on linking up, but where does the link strap go when not in use. Samething for lead strap & "waterstrap"?

      I clip mine on the left cheek ring of my halter or I clip it to the breast strap if I have one on my horse. Early war events I ride with the breast strap and crupper, late war events I don't use either of those. Do what feels most comfortable for you and your horse, though. There are some things that the manuals leave open for personal interpretation.
