you have a warnant rifle could be a number of calibers mostly rimfire..not much info on them either in value guides but ,,may be marked Liego,,thats about all i can tell ya about it ,,i found a pic of one matching yours to a T but no description other than a name,,found it in a book titled arms of the world 1911 and it sold back then for 14.50,,so far thats all i can tell ya ..i thought at first it was a flobert pattern rifle but i guess i was wrong..
