RE: Related video on derringers
I believe that a lot of it had to do with the conservative military attitude of the time. All of the manuals still used strategy of Napoleon. I guess it is the age old fear of change. I had not heard about Lincoln's ordering the Spencer carbines for the troops. I would like to read more about that.
