Don't know how many of you have seen the D.W. Griffith classic film "Birth Of A Nation".
It isn't shown very much because it is an extremely racist film that glorifies the KKK. It was filmed in 1927, I believe.
Anyway, there are a few scenes in there of Civil War Confederate troops. They are shown using Trap Door Springfields......
In 1927, one call to Bannerman would have gotten Griffiths the correct Civil War armament.
