Talk:List of weapons in the American Civil War

[edit] Scope?
This article seems to be making little progress. What is the proposed scope? Is it just infantry weapons or all weapons (artillery, gunboats, torpedoes, etc.)? If the former, consider renaming it Infantry weapons of the American Civil War; if the latter, you should probably recognize that there are already many articles on many types of weapons and it would be more appropriate to rename this List of weapons in the American Civil War, making it a list with brief descriptions and pointers to existing articles.

[edit] Noted
My original intent on making this page was to make information on American Civil War weapons a little easier to find, as I had a school project when I made it on this very subject. However, I followed your suggestion and, if given some free time, will add some links to other pages with a brief description. Signeon 01:48, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Ammunition
is "fudged up" a real type of ammunition? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 71.161.43.243 (talk) 18:27, 12 February 2007 (UTC).
Also, I don't think that a 220 LB ball could explode into "millions of fragments each about the size of your fist." It just seems like too great of a nmber. Otherwise great article.

[edit] Rifles?
Rifles were THE biggest development in the Civil War. What happened to them? See http://members.tripod.com/~ProlificPains/wpns.htm for a list of some. {Slash-|-Talk} 03:44, 14 March 2007 (UTC)
