Maxim Cannon

I took one of the 12 pounder Napoleon guns from the Eagle Games cannon and mounted it on the Atlantic Maxim gun carriage.  I drilled out the barrel so it looks a little better.

It makes for an interesting little mountain guns.

Until at least WWII National Guard units and even local militia units and private citizens purchased their own artillery to supplement whatever the Federal Government had or provided to them.

This does not represent any specific gun.

Perhaps it was manufactured locally by local craftsmen to support their state or local militia.

There has been an American tradition of local arms makers all over the nation, even today.  Airfix USAAF MP for size.
