Does anyone make these? My google-fu is bring up all kinds of nonsense. Search the TMP boards but I am seeing posts from a few years ago. |

I just realized, the guns in the scenario are probably model 1841s….so can I just use Mexican American war guns? Is there any notable difference? |

1st Corps make a nice MAW 6 pounder. I think it would be the same gun. link

Perry's certainly include 6 pounder barrels as part of their ACW range – ACW12 for example |

Thanks everyone! Looks like my Port Hudson garrison WILL have the proper guns. |

If you haven't already, read "Cannoneers in Gray" by Larry Daniel. It's a history of the artillery arm in the Confederate Army of Tennessee. It gives you a very good account of the 6 pounders that formed the backbone of that army in the early years of the war. |

Daniel's book is well worth adding to your library. |
