Berdan Sharpshooters (1 Viewer)

Just curious, even though Berdan's was a sharpshooter unit.....would they have used scopes? Thanks,Michael
After starting with colts, their primary weapon was a Sharp, without scope.

They carried heavy target rifles such as this morgan james in the supply wagons and used them when the situation required it.

I just opened my CS Berdan's sets from George Guerriero. All I can say is WOW ! The level of detail and the paint is amazing. I thought their 14th Brooklyn sets were nice, but these blow them away. I can't wait to see what future ACW sets this company comes out with.
 
Glad you like them Paul; there is another series of ACW figures on deck that will/should be out prior to the end of the year, I'm sworn to secrecy on this one, but info will be available at OTSN, so you'll know in about three weeks or so.............
 
Hay Paul and George,
Different war, same maker; I just opened my Arhnem Tiger and Horch. What beauties they are. And the zimit is perfect.
 
I'm glad both of you are happy, just doing my job........:)
