No, the Krag was the first repeating rifle adopted for the entire government service. Yes, Henrys and Spencers were acquired, for expediency, during the CW, but never formally adopted as THE official arm. Prior to the Krag, the Hotchkiss and Chaffee-Reece had been issued for trial in small quantities, but not adopted. Hmm, left out the Ward-Burton of 1871, guess I was in a .45-70 mode.
