From a book titled "Oriental America, Official and Authentic Records of the Dealings of the United States With the Natives of Luzon and Their Former Rulers" dated 1899. It was written during the Filipino Insurrection. The book touted that it was based on facts and evidence and covered many subjects. Of interest was a South Dakota volunteer regiment that had to fight with the old Springfields. They weren't happy about it and felt that lives were lost for not having the Krag.
