I have not done this before, so please bear with me. I have two items for sale at the Fall Nationals:
1842 SB by James River Arms shortened to artillery model with replacement barrel from Whitacre...30and 1/4 inches muzzle to breech face, 13 and 1/5 in LOP, factory trigger pull app. 6lb. and asking $600.00.
1864 Springfield, original I picked up in a package deal; this is really more of a parts musket for anyone who may be building one. I believe the lock, barrel, trigger guard, and butt plate are original and the arm appears to have been sporterized at some point to a shotgun for civilian use. as the barrel is very rusty and rear site removed; still appears to have original front sight; a very artistic treatment of the ram rod; the stock does not seem to be original, but a later fitting when sporterized...maybe a good parts gun...$450.00.
I hope I can upload the pictures...
I'm located at the First Richmond Rifles campsite on the corner, right next to the Washington Blue Rifles and across from the hooter.

OK, couldn't add pictures because zip files exceeded size acceptable?
