Springfield Armory developed “cadet rifles” prior to the Civil War. These weapons were based on the issue service rifle at the time but were generally shorter than the standard rifle. These cadet weapons were then issued to cadets at the US Military Academy and to various military schools in the United States. The muzzle diameter of the cadet rifle is the same as the issue rifle but the cartridge was different. To minimize recoil, the cadet rifle was sighted to fire the .45-55-405 carbine round. The rifle used the standard rifle rear sight so the height of the front size blade was changed to compensate for the difference.
