1898年的美国-西班牙战争以美国的胜利而告终,菲律宾被美军占领。菲律宾国内激进分子对美国的军事统治不满,继而发动武装叛乱,这次叛乱从1899年持续到1902年,美军在平息叛乱中为士兵装备了柯尔特M1892 0.38英寸转轮手枪。但在实践中,他们的新型转轮手枪竟然不能使挥着弯刀的摩洛人迅速丧失战斗能力,这令他们感到困扰,由此引发了一场关于手枪弹口径的旷日持久的大辩论。
The U.S.-Spanish war of 1898 ended in a U.S. victory and the Philippines was occupied by the U.S. forces. After the domestic militants in the Philippines were dissatisfied with the military rule of the United States and then launched an armed rebellion that lasted from 1899 to 1902, the U.S. troops equipped the soldiers with the Colt M1892 0.38 inch revolver in the process of quelling the insurgency. In practice, however, their new revolvers turned out to be annoyed by the swift loss of combat capability of the Moro waving machetes, triggering a protracted debate over the caliber of pistols.
