This gives me much better insight when I play Ultimate General- Civil War. Thank you!
How on earth did they ever resupply their troops with so many different types of rounds and primer charges?!! It had to have been a absolute nightmare! I never even thought about that aspect.
I was thinking the exact thing
@@samuelparker9882 most guns fired a .58 round. Those that didn't like the Lorenz were often re-bored to fire the .58
Excellent as always. I recently bought a 1855 Springfield made in 1859. Can't wait to fire it.
Those smoothbores are more accurate than most people give them credit for. Most people think you can’t hit a barn beyond 50 yards and that is not even close to true. They can easily hit a man size target at 100 yards
Most people don't realize those "smoothbores" are actually rifled too lmao
@@ShutUpBubi what r you talking about ?
@@ShutUpBubi No, some of the old .69 cal smoothbores had riffling added to them after which they ceased to be smoothbores.
Still better than the History Channel
You should do one with swords and sabers next
The Civil war a supply nightmare for both sides of the war, but of course the South had the worst of this. Providing reports from the field, hearing these men's own words gives these video's their punch. Thank you So Much.
enjoyed and *LIKED* the video
4:55 Irish brigade vs Pickett's charge? lol
Indeed. They were not there but I can see how that happened. The 69th Pennsylvania, another Irish regiment, was there and it also had a green flag like the 69th New York. The 69th New York was in the Irish Brigade and it was at Gettysburg so I can see how it happened.
The Confederates modified the Model 1855 rifle by getting rid of the tape primer and substituting a percussion cap anvil. Henceforth, the Richmond Rifle of 1860 and 1861. The Union too with the Springfield Model 1861.
Wow these rifles look great a wonderful film ❤❤❤❤❤❤it.thank you everything you do
Good stuff! 😊🤙🏼
Buck and ball, probably still a good idea for close work I'd be inclined to believe.
"Meagher's buck and ball showed its effectiveness at Gettysburg, against Pickett's Charge".....Now I don't know what to believe in this video!
With a 1722 "Brown Bess", you can't hit the broadside of a barn.
Does anybody have a source for that photo towards the beginning with all the soldiers in formation?
Narrator almost sounds like Charlton Heston.
I have a Springfield 1844 musket that I Inherited. Does anyone know the history or value of it
So what were the old flintlock conversions that came before the 1842 Springfield musket?
The 1816 Springfield is one, the 1795 is another. Mostly used in the first year of the war until replaced by the 61 Springfield.
@@mickeyholding7970 thank you.
Ultimate general civil war on Steam uses these weapons
