Santa Anna’s Soldier Using His Ramrod, 1836
Model: RTA131

Scale: 1/30

Finish: Matte

Manufacturer: King & Country

This finely detailed single figure depicts a Mexican infantryman using his ramrod as part of the musket loading process during the assault on the Alamo in 1836.

Captured mid-action, the soldier is shown ramming the cartridge down the barrel—an essential step in muzzle-loading firearms of the 18th and 19th centuries. His pose highlights the disciplined drill and precision required to maintain an effective rate of fire under battlefield conditions.

The figure’s uniform, musket, and equipment are carefully rendered to reflect the appearance of Mexican forces during the Texas Revolution. Subtle weathering and lifelike sculpting add depth and realism, making this piece an excellent addition to any historically accurate display.

Hand-painted in 1/30 scale with a matte finish, this King & Country figure provides both educational value and visual interest. It pairs perfectly with firing and reloading figures to illustrate the full musket-loading sequence within a dynamic Alamo diorama.

A classic and historically grounded figure that captures a key moment in musket-era combat.
