when the natives, cree, fought the plains natives, they used a lot of northwest trade rifles, barrels were cut off shorter. they would two and three ball them when they fought. they wanted to make sure they came out on top. some lost fingers and thumbs when the ball came off the powder, but that wasnt too often.they would carry the balls in their mouth when they went into the fight, and they could reload real fast. crees were always out numbered. they killed a famous blackfoot chief with a 3 balled short barreled northwest trade rifle.
