Original U.S. Mexican American War Ames Model 1832 Artillery Short Sword with Scabbard - Desirably Dated 1845 Spanish Helmets This lovely pair of SabotsOriginal Item: Only One Available. This is a wonderful example of an Ames Model 1832 Artillery Short sword, made just before the MexicanAmerican War of 1846 1848, a VERY desirable era for this type of sword. While unfortunately we have no way to verify it, this sword definitely could have been involved in the conflict! These were also kept in service for decades, so if it was still in service, it almost certainly saw service in the U. S. civil war! A
