- Model Expo has been serving hobby enthusiasts with precision Models since 1976, and is a hobby tools and Accessories manufacturer, distributor, and reseller.
- The Model 1841 cannon was a lightweight gun used extensively during the Mexican War. Though fairly mobile at 900 pounds, its softball-sized shot was too small to do much damage. It was easily outranged, especially once rifled guns came into use.
- An extensive number of these 6-pounders existed at the outbreak of the Civil War, and were pressed into service by both sides. When the advantages of rifled guns that fired elongated projectiles across greater distances became apparent, the government began to convert older smoothbores into rifled weapons.
- Historically accurate and perfectly scaled with Precision Cast Metal Parts. Cleanly cast Britannia metal components, Authentically detailed cannon barrel, Realistic spoked wooden wheels.
- Clearly written illustrated instructions, View the PDF Link below. Easy to build – assembly & painting time 5-10 hours. Length 8" Width 4" Height 3-1/4" Scale 1:16 Weight 1 lb. Entry Level

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice little model.
*by A***R on June 20, 2024*

The media could not be loaded. Enjoyed building this little model. Only real complaint is the instructions could have been done a lot better and the image on the box has been flipped. But overall I would buy it again. I went more with a rustic look and aged the brass barrel and used a rust technique. I also drilled out the barrel to insert a firecracker. My wife and daughter had no idea that it would be that loud.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Attractive metal parts
*by C***N on May 9, 2023*

It will be a beautiful display piece. A few parts are a little warped, but most won't notice that. If any recommendations can be made to the manufacturer, I would suggest that more care be given to the molded pieces when handling them as they cool to prevent distortion.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Challenging
*by C***T on August 5, 2018*

First time constructing a model of this type. Very challenging. Model Expo has a great product
