    Sharps rifle?

    Hello. I am new to skirmishes and just pledged yesterday. It is simply fantastic, glorious, and brilliant. I have enjoyed every minute of it so far. I do have one pressing question however I can't seem to find the answer to. How do I choose which weapon I spawn in with in a class in a regiment? It seems to me the type of revolver/rifle you spawn in with is random right now. I was mainly wondering this because I see other people using the Sharps rifle, and I really want to give it a go and try it out. It is such a cool weapon. How do I equip it?

    Entirely random?
    I was under the assumption that there were some regiments (namely, the 42nd PAVI) that it was standard issue to.

    The 42nd PA and the sharp shooter regiment (is it the 1st USSS that's in the game right now?) have them as their standard rifle, as long as you spawn in as a private of course.

    I don't believe I've ever spawned as 1st USSS or 42nd PA and NOT gotten a sharps. Doesn't mean they're aren't a few other spawn possibilities.

    Someone finally told me why I wasn't seeing this choice. The screen that lets you select which regiment you are and uniform now is two pages long. Just have to click on the "Next" arrow above the list to see the 2nd page that has the Sharp Shooters on it.

    Right now if you select Sharp Shooter regiment you seem to get a Sharps. Doesn't appear to be random.

    Since it is such a superior weapon to the Springfields, are they planning to limit them later?
    I would definitely give the Union side an edge in a skirmish if everyone showed up with a Sharps.
