martini henry rifles

Im here in lovely afghanistan and on saturdays when were back in the fob theres this thing called a "bizarre" its kinda like a flea market, only different... anyhow they have a plethra of surplus arms, some dating back as far as 1840's and 1850's in quite excellant condition, theres some enfield muskets and martini henry's and some trapdoor type rifle as well as some rifles that look like they are strait from bugs bunny (where the barrel cones out like a bullhorn at the muzzle) not sure of the type but can anyone tell me the possible value of these, im really concitering purchasing one or more of these (they run about 100$ us) as well as any markings to indicate good value or a fake? any info would be appreciated.
