Winchester .22 Long Falling Block

I have a Winchester .22 Long Falling Block rifle, round barrel, buckhorn sights, solid. Were they made in smooth-bore or is my barrel shot out? I can stick a .22 shell in the barrel from the muzzle just as easy as from the breech. And there is no rifling, model no's., serial no's., or dates on it. Good shape otherwise.
Any body have any info. or history?

The Winchester Single Shot Musket, Low Wall, Solid Frame came with a 28" Barrel and a Full Stock. The U.S. Government purchased a large quantity of these for Training Purpose during WW1...Many of these Rifles were later sold through the DCM to NRA Members for $1.50 each..
There was also the Winchester Single Shot "WINDER" Musket, High Wall, Came in Solid Frame or Takedown, Military Type Butt Stock and Forearm...Has a Standard Finger Lever......Without a Complete and comprehensive discription or a couple Photos Its gonna be difficult to ascertain just which one you have...
