The various declarations of treason, er 'cuse me, "independence", by the slave states all prominently say "we're fighting for slavery". Every few years, people repost this to NSG. Are you gonna make me look up the posts and link them here?

I know what the session proclamations say, but the United States and the Confederate States did not go to war over slavery, at least not at first. Lincoln wanted to prevent the South from leaving, not a hundred percent sure why, he was willing to make the entire US slave owning if necessary, he himself said in his first inaugural speech, he would free none, one or all to preserve These United States. Like I said I am not a revisionist, I don’t apologize for the actions of the South, I wasn’t there. I can say my great great grandfather, a Black freedman in N. Carolina was willing to fight for the Confederacy. I can only assume that he had a good reason. Like I said before this was about Lincoln and his actions only.

My RP is mostly in the form of news articles (I am not sure if I understand other kinds) so if you're interested by that I can give some ideas.

It’s sure nice to see some controversial debate in the RMB.

I am not high enough social status to hook up with a cousin for political machinations, and as far as I'm concerned that's the only real reason to do it

Well I mean I'm a fella who likes his flags and your one, comrade, is breaking a few rules as it is. Nothing personal though, just vexillology! :)
I'd be happy to design you flags if you want

I apologize but that is currently not what I am looking for. Currently.

Telegram me the sort of stuff you want wacked on there and I'll get back to you as soon as I get some designs. I typically do around two or three to make sure I got everything right. I typically pass them onto the client (as I am such a professional) via Discord. You got Discord my man?

Yeah an unofficial one. Pretty sure it's linked under the ambiguous title of "Chat" in the WFE

Gotcha. I will send you a telegram then make an account.

No need to apologise; I am very well aware that my RP knowledge is lacking in the context of NS :)

Because it’s illegal to seceed from the US. And the South seceded over slaves. Whether Lincoln said it or not

Mine only do it in the morning when they know there's food coming, the rest of the time they act like my other animals and treat me like chopped liver

The Ayrupe Eredu (Model) 1891 was a bolt-action rifle of Aizconan origin that saw extensive use in the period between the late 1800s and the beginnings and through the First Imperial War. This was the first rifle model in the line designed and manufactured by Lokadi Ayrupe of the Ayrupe Company.


History

In the late 1880s and early 1890s the Aizconan Military was in a period of modernization. One of these components of modernization was a new standardized service rifle for the Aizconan Army. Thus the Army put out a contract for a new modern rifle for the Aizconan army. By the end of the contest it came down to three companies' designs, one of which being the Ayrupe Bolt Action Rifle. The Ayrupe design took a large amount of influence from European designs which the company had reverse engineered for its own use. The main features of this rifle would be the ability to use stripper clips to feed the magazine (a revolution in rate of fire), and the introduction of the high performance smokeless powder rimless bottlenecked rifle 7.65x53mm Ayrupe cartridge that they had stolen directly from European designs.

By the time of the trials of the three rifles left in April of 1890, the Ayrupe design was the furthest along in the process with the least defects due to their use of outside designs, where the other two companies went with indigenous design. The Aizconan Army was especially impressed with the stripper clips that were used in the rifle which led to a much higher rate of fire than the other two rifles. Along with that the Ayrupe design was more reliable and was more ergonomically comfortable. At the end of the rifle trials the Aizconan Army selected the Ayrupe design which was designated the Ayrupe E1891. They gave the company a large contract for the rifle.

(Talk about service history)


Features

One of the principal defining features of the Ayrupe E1891 was a spring-loaded cock on closing bolt action resembling that of the British Lee-Metford, which predates the Ayrupe E1891 by seven years. This development allowed for faster firing and was well received.

The E1891 featured a single-piece solid wooden body running the entire weapon, ending just aft of the muzzle. It contained two bands and iron sights were fitted at the middle of the receiver top and at the muzzle like virtually all other rifles of the time. Overall length of the rifle was just over 50 inches (1270 millimeters) with the barrel contributing to approximately 30 inches (762 millimeters) of this length. Of course, a fixed bayonet was issued and added another 10 inches (254 millimeters) to the design as doctrine of the period still relied heavily on the bayonet charge for the defensive victory.

All variations used the same 7.65mm round-nosed cartridge. Many parts were interchangeable.
