| rdfs:comment | - The Springfield Model 1873, often referred to as the Springfield "Trapdoor" Model 1873, was the first breechloading rifle to be adopted by the US army (although the earlier "Trapdoors" such as the Model 1865 or Model 1868 had been used by the American armed forces in very limited numbers).
- The Springfield model 1873 was a breech-loading rifle in the 19th century. This weapoon was used by the United States Army in its war against the American Indians. In the Q Civil War of 2373, the war was perceived by crewmembers of the USS Voyager as the re-creation of a battlefield in the American Civil War. Although the weapons appeared as if they were of that era, they were actually weapons beyond Human comprehension, capable of far greater destruction. The Springfield model 1873 was one of the weapons used in that conflict. This weapoon was used by both factions' soldiers and Voyager personnel. (VOY: "The Q and the Grey")
- The Springfield (Trapdoor) Rifle was the standard issue rifle of the US Army during the Second Mexican War. It was considered an even match for it's Confederate counterpart and performed admirably during the war.
- The Model 1873 "Trapdoor" Springfield was the first standard-issue breech-loading rifle adopted by the United States Army (although the Model 1866 trapdoor had seen limited issue to troops along the Bozeman Trail in 1867). The gun, in both full-length and carbine versions, was widely used in subsequent battles against the American Indians.

The gun, in both full-length and carbine versions, was widely used in subsequent battles against the American Indians. The Model 1873 was the fifth variation of the Allin trapdoor design, and was named for its hinged breechblock, which opened like a trapdoor. The infantry rifle model featured a 32-inch (829 mm) barrel, while the cavalry carbine used a barrel. It was superseded by an improved model, the Springfield Model 1884, also in .45-70 caliber.
