A proposition to convert the new
Springfield rifle into carbine for the
use of the counted service is being
considered by the ordnance officers OF
the army. The plan is to shorten the
barrel OF the rifle four inches. and by
so doing to reduce its weight by two
pounds, thus making it much easier
to handle by the mounted troops. The
sights also are to be adjusted to meet
the shortening of the barrel.
The decrease in the muzzle veloc
ity, it is claimed. will not be so great
as to interfere with its effectiveness
up to a range Of 1880 yards. The
ordnance department had been asked
to make a report on the proposition
and the cavalry board will take it VI
and include It in its report on the re
organization of the cavalry and on thu
new equipment.
