Hello Anksthakur,

This seems to be an interesting, older firearm and I am sure quite a few of our members can help you with more information.

As Vikram pointed out please post in English, or have someone assist you to post in English and attach clear, close-up images of the rifle taken on a neutral, light background so the details are clearly visible.

Good luck!

Looks like a falling block rifle.

It could be a Winchester Model 1886 Falling block in .50 Black Powder Caliber. Just a Guess. Will hold some value to the collectors ABROAD. I am sure it'll help if you posted detailed pictures.

The high-walls made in 50-110 express were marked "50 EX." Additionally, keep in mind that Winchester only made a handful of high-walls in the 50-95 WCF cartridge before the 50-110 EX was introduced. From serial number 1 through serial number 10,000, there were just (11) recorded high-walls made in the 50-95 WCF and 50-110 EX cartridges, (9) and (2) respectively.

If that is the case, here is some information on the cartridge from "Cartridges of the World".

Please take a look at the attached photos.
