    WTB An Enfield or Parker Hale .58 musket Maybe a Springfield too

    I am looking for a good used .58 caliber musket with proven accuracy. I've struggled with my Armi Zouave for 20 years and honestly, I'd do better tossing rocks. I had a nice Pedersoli Enfield and I traded it. Stupid me. Anyway, I'd either like to buy one or trade for one.

    I have a very nice Parker Hale 1853 Enfield, that came from my friend's estate. I'll put pictures up shortly, if I can get them to post.

    I have no info as to accuracy, as I've never shot it, and he died suddenly, so I wasn't able to ask...
    PM me for details and more pictures, if you're interested.
