It has been a while since I posted here. Some of you have seen my other models in the past but this is my first Ringgold saddle.

There's an 1842 percussion pistol in the holster and an 1840 hall carbine suspended just like the Napoleonic French hussars carried their carbines.
The pommel and cantle are trimmed with cast brass metal arches that maybe began a trend later seen on the grimsley saddle as well as the Civil War Officers McClellan saddles. Thanks for looking.

Lovely work - appreciate that you showed the actual dragoon issue version, and not the old Duncan repair version.

Very nice. More so than the ratio, the photo with the hand next to the saddle really shows the scale. Good work, thanks for posting this.
