I must admit, that's way cooler than if it had a compass in the stock and this thing that tells time. I love old things.

The dove tail is beautiful, for some reason it's the guns finest feature IMO.

It is unknown. I got it directly from France I'd say 15 years ago or so . No real markings except the engravers initials.

Yes I'm aware of all the collector goodies as old Doc Beeman in the day pushed the L&C story for all too hear in the day.. And Robert Law before him...
