M1857 Napoleon Gun & Johnny Rebel Minifig

Brickmania is pleased to release our first ever kit based on the American Civil War: M1857 Napoleon Gun with “Johnny Rebel” Confederate soldier.

The M1857 was one of the most common field artillery pieces used by both sides during the American Civil War. It was a smooth bore cannon, fired a 12-pound projectile and was typically moved by a train of six horses. It’s four main types of ammunition consisted of solid shot (aka the cannon ball), explosive shell,  shrapnel (or “case” ammunition) and canister anti-personnel rounds. It’s safety, reliability and deadly firepower earned the M1857 a great deal of respect by the troops that used it.
