AS 41 This is about 3/4 of a thrown Hotchkiss Sabot with good rifling marks. Dug in the Confederate Defenses at Port Hudson and fired by Yankee guns. Nice display piece to shown how Hotchkiss sabots were thrown from shells and became deadly shrapnel. $30.00

ACS 28 This is the second 5.82 Selma shell Billy dug at Port Hudson. It is in very good condition but like the one above it is missing the fuse and copper disc sabot. The nose is perfect. This one has also been stripped, treated with Tannic Acid and sealed. A hard to find CS shell for your collection.
$1800.00
