Any other information as in bore diameter cap size and frame material would also be helpful. Thanks!

As marked, an Italian made reproduction based on the 1858 Remington with a brass frame, rather than steel. Judging from the rough finish on the steel parts, it may well have been sold as a kit. An economy piece. If you really want to know actual bore diameter, slug the barrel and take careful measurements.
Most .44 reproduction revolvers use .451 balls cast from pure (soft) lead, and #11 caps.
This is a modern restricted firearm and as such is subject to the current prohibitions related to transfer.

Richland Arms Co. was an importer until 1986 located in Blissfield, MI. The revolver is, with almost certainty, a former kit. I think it was Euro Arms that was a big exporter of these kits...?
Who actually cast the pieces or if they did it internally is a bigger question. The stamping on the cylinder may tell you who, but doesn't mean all the parts came from the same place. That revolver at the time (60's-70's?) was made for the reenactor more than the shooter. And with that brass frame, more so, an inaccurate reenactor.
Like tiriaq stated: It's definitely a restricted firearm and should be treated that way. And imo, is probably worth more in parts than as a whole. The drag on that cylinder would indicate to me that the revolver is in need of a tune up by a competent gunsmith before even attempting to shoot it. I suspect it has just been slapped together.

I remember the name. I bought a Colt 1860 repro a number of years ago in NJ with that name on the barrel. They were an importer of all types of BP firearms made in Spain/Italy etc. I remember all the hoops and hurdles I had to go thru to buy that thing in NJ as they had stringent state gun laws. Now someone in BC owns it.
