Default Translation help, on Afghan- owned Martini-Henry.

Jim,
I am afraid at present I am breaking the sticky rule, as I only have photos of the inscription! I had not read your translation sticky until now.....

I will endevour to address the situation and attach overall photos very soon!

I have just recieved a Martini-Henry rifle, that has spent many years in Afghanistan,...after a stint in New Zealand.
It is in need of a fair amount of renovation, and after I had it all pulled apart, I noticed under the rust on the buttplate the inscription shown below.

Please can anyone tell me what language it is written in, and it would be wonderful if Someone knows what it says!!

I hope I have it the correct way up...

Thank you for looking,

Richard.
