Wiard 6-lb. Rifle
ca. 1863
Canadian-born Noman Wiard who served as a US Army Superintendent of Ordnance Stores invented this unique gun and its revolutionary carriage. The Wiard was strong, very accurate and used far less powder. Wiard carriages were stronger, better over rough terrain, more compact in shipping and were quickly and easily repaired when damaged. In spite of their outstanding features and combat history, only eleven batteries were purchased for the Union Army.
