	Red River War-Weapons
		Prior to the Indian Wars of the mid-1870s, the preferred weapons of the U.S. Army were the Spencer repeating carbine and.50 caliber, single shot Springfield rifle and Sharps carbine.
		The Army selected the Springfield.45 caliber rifle in 1873 as the weapon for the infantry and the shorter carbine of the same caliber for the cavalry.
		Therefore, even though the Spencer, Winchester, and Henry repeating rifles could fire more rounds in a shorter amount of time than the single-shot Springfield, it appears the Springfield, with its longer range, was the superior gun of the Indian Wars.
