Yes, it is a breechloading conversion of an Enfield rifled musket made in 1859.
On the top of the breech there will be marks indicating the exact version. Anything stamped on the buttplate tang?
The butt stamp indicates Enfield and that it was a class one arm.

That rifle should be prohibited, it was designed solely to subjugate and colonialize as many groups as possible in the shortest time possible. It's a weapon of mass subjugation, it belongs on a battle field. No one needs 577 to hunt deer.
