Buddy is a cop. His grandfather gave a few guns. This one has no serial number or marks that I can ID.
It's a .32 caliber top break. ] 
Only markings. ]

Looks like an old H&R to me. My friend's dad has a collection of old break over 32s and 38s dating back to the 1880s. He has several of the H&Rs as well as Iver Johnsons, S&Ws, etc.
H&R had the weird hammers like that I believe. Can't really say it's an H&R for sure though. |

Well. At least its not a pin fired.
Here is my info and links on the markings. http://archery.ar15.com/archive/topic.html?b=6&f=2&t=287155 |
