Breech loader at Jackson
In Response To: Re: Something at Port Hudson ()

O.R. Chap. XXXVI Jackson Campaign page 541

July 29,1863.

Report of Ordnance and Ordnance Stores captured at Jackson, Miss.

"Turned over to assistant quartermaster for transportation: 621 muskets and one 2 inch bronze rifled gun (breech-loading)."

Here is another rifled breech-loader in the area of Raymond, although clearly not a Whitworth.
