Two-photon amplification and lasing in laser-driven potassium atoms is investigated theoretically using a rigorous model that takes into account the hyperfine level structure of the atoms for arbitrary intensity drive and lasing fields. The model correctly predicts most features of the recent experiments, such as the characteristics of the multiphoton gain resonances and the two-photon laser emission intensity and line shape. In addition, it constitutes a new tool for exploring behaviors that are difficult to address experimentally, such as interference effects between different quantum pathways. In contrast to single-photon lasers, the laser emission line shape is frequency pushed and has the form of a closed curve composed of a stable and an unstable branch.
