ACW 6pdr smoothbore

Greetings

The absence of this model has come up in a couple of places - Dour Puritan mentioned it the other day.

An earlier post included the idea that there might be an existing tube - possibly from a 19th century range - that would be close enough and could be used with an existing carriage. Logically this should be similar to the M1841 if possible as this was the widest used model.

Any thoughts from anyone?

I would totally agree we need to finish this range off

Take care

It is an omission.  Many M1841 smoothbores were also rifled to the James system and outwardly are indistinguisable.  They were very common in the early war and particularly the Western theatre.  At 1:150 the tube would need to be no more than 11mm long.

If somebody out there is desperate the 10mm Crackerline artillery pack sold by Timecast comes with optional 6pdr tubes.

As do GHQ artillery DP, though both are a bit small for Pendraken carriages.
