Cavalry Equipment
Equipment used by the soldiers of the Cavalry.
During the Civil War, the cavalrymen had three main weapons: the saber, the carbine and the revolver. Each man was issued with at least one revolver; some carried as many as four. Although they were supposed to be issued with both a saber and a carbine, many troopers were issued with either one or the other.
Our fighting soldiers are the greatest asset to the Cavalry.

The prepared trooper sports his Model 1859 Sharps carbine, Model 1860 light saber, and a pair of 1851 Colt Navy revolvers. Notice the leather knot tied to the sword, wrapped around the wrist to prevent dropping it, and the wide carbine belt around the shoulder, attached to the Sharps with a sling through its o-ring. |
