Missouri Union militia during the Civil War

ADVERTISEMENTS

An interesting historical find. A roster of (I would gather) State-issued militia weapons. The militia traditionaly turned out with whatever they had, but given the supply problems created by the Civil War, it looks as if State governments issued militiamen whatever they could find.

Austrian, British, Prussian and US muskets, smoothbore and rifled, in a variety of calibers, shotguns both single and double barrel, Burnside cavalry carbines, 800+ "squirrel guns," and one so obscure I'd never heard of it, the Delvigne or Garibaldi musket (so named although it was an Austrian design). Data on that arm here.
