The Model 1841 6-Pounder gun was made in large numbers for the Mexican War and was in general service at the outbreak of the American Civil War. As a result they were widely used in large numbers by both the Federal and Confederate armies. Weighing approximately 900 lbs., these guns were fairly easily transported and maneuvered. They were superseded fairly early in the war, lacking the power of heavier guns and the range of rifled pieces, but nevertheless they have an important place in the history of the nation's conflict.
This 1/5 scale replica of the 6-pdr. is made with exacting attention to detail. Crafted entirely in steel and solid oak, with a barrel of blued steel, this reminder of a momentous time in our nationâ™s history measures a little over two feet long and weighs in at a hefty 12-1/4 lbs. A treasure for the Civil War enthusiast, this outstanding piece will make an imposing display in any home or office.
