Rom,
On your search engine line: North-South Skirmish Assoc
This will push you to our Main Page, click on Bulletin Board.
Scroll down to Civil War Arms, describe the Parker Hale's condition and the first two serial numbers. It is required that you list an asking price. (Is is a musketoon or a two-band musket?) Either way, should fetch a pretty penny. Parker Hales are fine shooting muskets, well made, with progressive depth rifling, and good sights.

You won't get as much for the eurosport, as it is more of a beginner level musket.
While you are there, take a moment to look at my 'main' hobby!
If you get a nibble and need a reference, p/mail me.

the web has several reenacting forums that would provide you with a buyer for these rifled muskets.
the authenic campaginer is one of them.
good luck,
