Soldiers tend to be inheritently conservative - they gripe about every new weapon and piece of equipment they get. There were complaints when the Krag was replaced by the M1903, the M1903 by the M1 and so forth. Such was the truth when the Trapdoor was replaced by the Krag; especially with the teething problems the Krag had in the beginning.

Holy cow, Rick! The 1903 was replaced by something called the M1?? When did that happen?
