Adult McClellan C War Replica Military Re-enactment Cavalry Saddle Brown 17 New. CAVALRY MCCLELLAN SADDLE REPRODUCTION. The McClellan saddle was a riding saddle designed by G B Mcclellan, a career Army officer in the US Army, after his tour of Europe as the member of a military commission charged with studying the latest developments in engineer and cavalry forces including field equipment. Based on his observations, McClellan proposed a design that was adopted by the Army in 1859. The McClellan saddle was a long-lasting success and continued in use, in various forms, from the period of its adoption until the U. Army’s last horse cavalry and horse artillery was dismounted in WWII. Today, the McClellan saddle continues to be used by ceremonial mounted units in the U. The saddle was also used by several other nations, including Rhodesia and Mexico, and even to a degree by the British in the Boer War.
