Pretty tough to give any history with such limited photos and no description. A full length picture and closeup of the lock and trigger(s) plus caliber info would help a lot.

In my opinion, based on what I can see. This is a back lock percussion rifle made by a gunsmith
named Moore, who used a Remington made barrel. Remington started making barrels (1816) long before making complete firearms. As marlinman said more photos would be helpful.

Thank you fellows. I’ll get some more pics of it for you. Maybe by next week. I

I had one gunsmith calibrate it and he said it’s. .32 caliber.

[marlinman93]

.32 caliber would indicate a squirrel rifle, or target rifle to me.

I have some more pics and another gunsmith said it’s a .40 cal. Any information as to what it’s worth would be great! The barrel is 1-1/2”. The flats on the barrel are 1” wide.
