The length is very off for a civil war rifle. Typically you had Springfield 1861 rifles with a length of over 4 ft. The UACO stamp is known for that model.
A picture is in order to clear up if it's something completely different or an 1861 that's been drastically shortened.

As I get older I find hitting a mini ram at 200 yards with the 22 oddly more satisfying.
