Lubricate their rounds with pig fat. Simple.

Something as simple as that was one of the causes of the Indian Mutiny.

Rifle cartridges were wrapped in greased paper, and the end had to be bitten off before loading.

Some bright spark started the rumour that the grease was made from beef tallow and pork lard;

Thus pissing off both the Hindu's AND the Muslims........ingenious !

Cheers.
