Help identify this rifle

Please help me identify this rifle. I know nothing more than it was passed down from father to daughter. I couldn't find any markings but it looks like a .22 caliber.

Looks to be a Flobert, believe they were Belgian made.

Warnant System "Trapdoor" Flobert.
Belgian, maybe French, 1900 +/-
Caliber .22 Short if for US sale, 6mm Flobert in Europe.
Looks to be missing the breechbolt knob.
Not a shooter. Maybe CB caps if in better condition.
