REVOLUTIONARY/ CIVIL WAR 3 Pounder Naval BAR SHOT :
$177.50

Here for your consideration is a Revolutionary / Civil War era naval bar shot. This is a less encountered variation. Here the ball was cast to accept the bar stock then pinned and peaned. Used from the 1600`s through the 1800`s in naval battles it was fired from deck guns at close range to tear through rigging, sails and masts rendering a ship unable to effectively maneuver or escape. Effectively employed it would allow the attacking ship to over take and board the opposing vessel. These engagements often included fierce hand to hand combat using swords, knives, pikes, axes and muskets. This type of shot was also used in ground base actions against foot soldiers and cavalry at point blank range with devastating results. Excellent patina.The cast iron balls are just over 2 1/2\" in diameter. The bar is approximately 1 1/8\" square and 11 1/2\" in length. weighs just under 6 1/2 pounds. Excellent patina.
