1st U.S. Berdan’s Sharpshooter, Standing Firing

Model: 31477
Scale: 1/30
Finish: Matte

This striking 1/30 scale figure depicts a soldier of the famed 1st U.S. Berdan’s Sharpshooters in the act of standing fire, rifle leveled with precision toward a distant target. Known for their elite marksmanship, Berdan’s men were handpicked for their shooting skill and served as skirmishers, scouts, and battlefield snipers during the American Civil War.

Dressed in their distinctive dark green uniforms—chosen for concealment rather than parade-ground tradition—the sharpshooters operated ahead of Union lines, targeting officers, artillery crews, and key positions. The figure is equipped with a period rifle and field gear, reflecting the specialized role these troops played in disrupting Confederate operations.

Finished in realistic matte tones with finely sculpted uniform folds, equipment detail, and firing posture, this piece adds action and authenticity to Civil War skirmish scenes, sniper vignettes, and Union army displays. A must-have representation of one of the war’s most renowned specialist units.
