Hi any good resource on Spanish American War weaponry? I need stats on the Krag Model1892 and Spanish Mauser M93.  Need stuff like max range, effective range, rate of fire and reload speeds. Good to get arty stats as well.

I think Al Nofi (formerly of Strategy & Tactics and now Strategypage) did a column on this.
Cannot think where I saw this, but he is on Facebook and easy to approach.

During filming of Airplane, Leslie Nielsen used a whoopee cushion to keep the cast off-balance. Hays said that Nielsen "played that thing like a maestro"

Not yet.  Probably SOW Gettysburg.  Just toying with the idea.  But I'm not sure if it does bolt action rifles well.

Hi, new guy here, didn't know if you had this already:

Seems there is a shortage of info on specifics regarding the Krag Model1892. Hope this helps.

    I will face my fear.
    I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
    And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
    Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain."  - Frank Herbert

Carlisle Barracks in Pennsylvania, is supposed to have a lot of material on the Spanish American War.
You could probably contact the base historian, or the HMGS grognard, Colonel Bill Gray lives nearby.
