Most likely .22 or .31 caliber.Most likely cartridge.You reload it by pulling the cylinder pin.Octagon barrel.The problem is there were a lot of makers.I just looked through a few hundred pictures.Came close but no cigar.

Smith and Wesson #1, dates back to Civil War.



After comparing the two photos, yours is not a Smith and Wesson, and at this point I don't even have a guess. Several companies made guns like these, but yours doesn't break open like a S & W. In your research watch for the brass frame, birds head grip, octgon barrel that doesn't break open.

This one is really close, lacks the octagon barrel, but it darn sure is on the right track. Also says nickle plated but nothing about brass frame.

This one is pretty close mine is missing the trigger plate maybe on left side
