Hello everyone, In the Napoleonic 25mm minifigs range, what caliber are the artillery pieces of the Reference NFA 16 Austrian Field Gun and reference NFA 17 Russian Field Gun. Thank you. |

I have looked in my 1970's Minifig catalogue and it doesn't say. NFA 16 Austrian Field Gun is Price Series 7. This would be for a Wurst Gun as it says it wants the seated crew Set No.15.
This carriage will be longer most normal field pieces but likely to be no more than a 6lb. NFA 17 Russian Field Gun is Price Series 6. Have you asked Caliver? Have fun. |

If I asked Caliver? Yes and he does not know. Have fun, yes I love 25mm minifigs |

My 1980 Catalog just says Field Guns. Oddly enough my 1976-77 catalog lists NFA 16 as Austrian Horse Gun |

I know they don't say the type of cannon for the Russians and Austro-Hungarians…And the Prussians aren't allowed any artillery!? |

I would guess that the Russian gun is a 6pdr, and would be appropriate for use as an Austrian field gun. If someone does purchase this, I'd like to see a photo of the gun. Disappointing how many manufacturers/vendors do not supply photos. |

@Robert Bruce The NFA 17 Russian Field Gun is a 12pdr, and would NOT be appropriate for use as an Austrian field gun. And the Reference NFA 16 Austrian Field Gun is a 3pdrs… |
