Yup Andy 52 is correct.. Three band Enfield pattern 1853 rifled musket. The VR stands for Queen Victoria
Is it original

All I can say, from, looking at hundreds of real ones, it that is DOES actually look real. The replications just do not have that patina.

Poor brazing job on the rear site is wrong; the front nose cap looks wrong; lock and barrel bands look correct Could still be the real thing.
Thanks

Could be the real thing. Or an old period copy for export sales, I had a carbine that was like an Enfield, but rougher and no government stamps on it. Look for Euroarms or Armi Sport or made in Italy on it….
I ran across an Indian made replica that looked exactly like yours. Is yours a shiny smooth bore?
It’s for sale I’m going to look at it this week.

Trot may be correct. The earlier Brown Bess muskets had the Crown insignia forward of the hammer but this was revised for the pattern 1853 to behind the hammer.

From looking at the other guns I would say it's a repro. Any info on the two rifles on the left, asking for a friend.

Yeah the Brit made Enfield's for their military, or trade on the open market were much better made than that one. Id say repro.
