After Shiloh, the 1st Ark requisitioned 29,000+ cartridges, all 54 caliber. Any speculation on rifle types? Seems maybe the entire regiment may have had same caliber but not sure. Captain William Crawford of Company E stated upon arrival in Virginia in 1861 that his men were all armed with new Springfield’s but he didn’t mention the caliber. Just curious as to type of rifles they may have had based on caliber. I know there were different 54 calibers out there.
