Welcome to the forum. It may be my monitor or it could merely be dirt or grime but the photo showing the butt looks like there is a weld joint toward the rear perhaps indicating that the square butt frame was added to a round butt.

In the photo with the tape measure it looks like the cylinder is longer than 1.5" and according to resident expert Mike Maher, that would indicate a .44-40 as opposed to .44 Russian.
