Hello all :) Felt like doing this little build just for fun :P. I hope to do wagons and coaches sometimes in the future, providing I can make a better wagon wheel

The 20 pounder Parrot Rifle. Was a muzzle loading cannon adopted by the United States Army, and was used by both sides during the Civil War. The gun being reinforced by a wrought iron band at its breech. The gun fired a 20 pound projectile hence its name, Firing such things as regular exploding cannon balls, to Canister shot, which practically turned the cannon into a giant shotgun. Despite the reinforcing band, the gun was notorious bursting without warning. With a effective firing range of 1,900 yards.

The cannon was also transported with a Limber cart, which helped to ease it towing by a team of horses, and also carried the ammo and powder for the cannon, Being kept at least six yards behind the cannon during action, or hide by cover
