During the scenes of the American advance there are several British SMLE in the hands on the Rough Riders and other troops.

There is also a left hand conversion Krag in the mix.


Hmmmm dunno about the SMLE's. I knew the reenactor coordinator on that movie. He was pretty strict. However you never know what props will come up with. I've seen the same LH Krag scene. That is a flipped frame. Bad editing.

And yet it irks me the poor dappled fools,
Being native burghers of this desert city,
Should in their own confines with forked heads
Have their round haunches gored."
