I'm trying to identify the manufacturer of my percussion rifle.
It doesn't look like any like I've seen so far online.

It has a really nice wooden stock which is kind of a Monte Carlo style with an integral cheek piece.
It has sling mounting studs.
It has a padded shotgun type butt plate.
It has a 26-1/2" round barrel.
It has a short cocking lever on the left side.
It has a safety lever on the right side.
It has an adjustable rear sight.
It has scope mount holes.
The only markings that I can make out are "Model 93 50 Mag" on the right side and "Black Powder or Pyrodex Only" on the left side of the barrel.
The brand name is too worn down to read.

Any help would be appreciated.

Yes, I think you are correct. Thank you very much.
I've found some similar looking Gonic Arms ones online now.
I wonder if there's any way to tell how old mine is.
I think the company is out of business now?
I guess that it's not worth very much now.

Funny what comes up when you Google "Model 93 50 Mag" (the probable answer).

Yes they have been out of business for a long time now. I’ve never had any luck searching for serial numbers by year. Would you be willing to post a few pictures?
Thanks.
