1st (Fagan's) Arkansas at Lynchburg, VA & Aquia Creek to ShilohPosted by Rich Saathoff on July 25, 2001 at 23:12:19: Doean anyone know what these men were armed with in the early stages of the War? Waht was being issued at Lynchburg, VA. Much of what I read this is where they were geared up at the beginning. I know they were armed with Enfield Rifles (short?) by the time of Murfreesboro. Searching this site http://www.couchgenweb.com/civilwar/ I find in one document that Co. I had short Enfield rifle at Nashville. Thanks to anyone who can help me out. Rich Saathoff
