Very Old and Odd .22 Help Identifying

Thanks Mike and it is a friends gun. He dropped it off for me to fix the stock which is badly broken and missing wood. All I need is a butt plate for it and an ugly one at that. If I cannot find one I will make it. Thanks for all the help Mike and everyone else.. Rick B
 
Is it marked "J M Browning"?

I had a chance to check, and Mike is right; those four pins are characteristic of the H&A 722, so I don't think there is any doubt as to the origin of the base gun.

It looks a bit like some "proof of concept" gun, but I can't really see what the "inventor" was trying to prove. Making a single shot pump gun would not seem the path to riches.

Looks like a Stevens Favorite rifle that someone tried to convert in to a pump action.... instead of a lever action falling block type. That's my guess. Didnt read any other replies just saw photos and posted.
