I caughts parts of this movie on TV. At the end as the credits come up they zoomed into the label on the gun and I couldn't make out anything that it said. What did it say? Was there a meaning to the label?

Funny I heard Jimmy Stewart's voice but didn't recognize him at first.

This is what the label said:

-----------------------------
FIRST PRIZE
CENTENNIAL RIFLE SHOOT
WON BY

DODGE CITY KANSAS
JULY 4th 1876
-----------------------------

so there was still no name engraved on it in the end.
