 Civil War Limber Model Kit 1:16 Scale, Signature Series The limber was an indispensable piece of equipment during the American Civil War. It was a simple two-wheeled cart designed to carry an ammunition chest containing gunpowder and shot for the artillery pieces. A team of horses was hitched to the limber and a cannon was hooked on to its rear when the army was on the move.
The ammunition chest lid was large enough to seat up to three men. However, sitting above the gunpowder was dangerous, so after the first few months of the War, only the driver rode on the limber. In times of battle, the limber and horses were left behind the lines of fire.
This kit contains laser-cut wooden parts for the main components, walnut strips, photo-etched brass for chest corner pieces and bands, plus Britannia metal castings for carrying handles, bucket, hooks, rings and many other details. You’ll assemble the wheels with machined aluminum hubs, walnut spokes and rims.
