L S Laughlin presented those two firearms to my grandfather as a reward for his patent on the extraction techniques that revoloutionized the industry that he signed over to the company. Quite frankly I wished gramps would'a kept the patent and liscensed it-would have made a lot more money for him. Anyway as the story goes, he made his way back east and upon his death I inherited both-had no idea they were so talked about.
Oh well, guess you learn something new every day.
