Are you looking for types/models of guns, or all sorts of artillery? They had rifles (the English used them during the Regency-era Napoleonic wars), cannons, mortar launchers (that have a name, but I can't think of it now). Catapults and the like went out of style around the same time castles did, but cannons replaced those nicely.
Which part of the Victorian period you're basing your world on will greatly influence your weaponry options. (Victoria was Queen from 1835-1901. There's a huge range of technological development in there.) Look into the Wars of German Unification (1866-71), because Wilhelm I of Prussia (Kaiser Wilhelm I of Germany) was keen on technological advances. (Also railroads. So he could move his troops around efficiently.)
