Looks like a LeMat to me, but I'm no expert.
LeMat did make a revolving rifle, but this isn't a LeMat.
I'm stumped
Does it have any markings? From the hammer, it almost looks like it could be pinfire. The trigger guard looks like it may have been taken from a LeMat carbine.

Is it a Tommy Lee gun?
I'm just saying that because it's long and old.

If it's not a LeMat, it's a LeMat knockoff.
