Well, I am sad to report that I took them to an old gun dealer and he said they are old replicas, and not actually real guns.  He did say they are very old "toys" and may be of some value in that arena.   :cryriver:

Either way, they are very cool and I will be making up a nice shadow box so my son can display them when he gets older. 

Thank you all for your input!  It is one of the reasons I love HuntWa so much!
