| Designed by US Naval Lieutenant John Dahlgren. The Dahlgren cannon was the primary naval gun of the Civil War. In fact, the USS Monitor used two Dahlgrens in its rotating turret to battle the CSS Virginia in the world’s first battle between Iron Clad warships. Now, the legendary Dahlgren is masterfully replicated with six cannon balls, grape shot and 2 powder kegs at the ready. Mounted for display on a 10"x6" base. |
