    Help IDing my first rifle

    I just bought my 1st black powder rifle from a local pawn shop and I need some help in identifying it. There are only a few markings on the barrel: #40884 Cal .45 and made in Italy. There is a symbol that appears to be an R stamped on top of a P, and that is it. Percussion cap and patch box...
