Excellent question :cd:
Murph probably knows the full answer, but it would appear that of the 200,000 Spencers made during the war, more than 100,000 of them were probably in still civilian or private hands? Then too, of the Union arms captured, those would have also been mostly out of reach as well. One wonders whether the Army was thinking things out west might not require the use of a repeating rifle? Maybe they were imagining it was going to be arrows against bullets, or something?
