The Armstrong was a large rifled cannon invented by an Englishman, Sir William George Armstrong, in 1854. It was made in both muzzle-loading and breech-loading designs and came in sizes ranging from three to 13.3 inches, with the three-inch size being the most popular. The 3-inch muzzle-loading Armstrong's fired a grooved projectile which weighed 12 pounds out to a distance of 2,200 yards with an elevation of 5 degrees.
