Ran across a gun made by this company, in India, in the 70s. It is proofed and seems well made.

I can't find any information on the maker or importer. Can anybody shed some light on this one?

Thanks

"Sikligar has been making black powder guns for decades in Udaipur India. (Since 1959)
Per current Indian Law, all firearms are to be stamped with the maker, date and town.
They were still in business when I last checked. https://mksikligar.com/
I have ordered gun parts directly from them.
I got them very quickly and were finished quite well"
The website that pops up now is: --->>> http://www.narayansports.com

And:

"Val Forgett imported several hundred Indian made double barrels and sold them under the Navy Arms brand."

Is yours a cavalry carbine or a double barrel shotgun?
If it's the carbine, what caliber is it?
Here's examples of each:
