Political lighter?

[ralfsnart]

So the story is.....


"Bought off a highly reputed military antiques shop in the heart of Riga, Latvia"

I have my doubts about it but know little. Looks like just an Eagle applied to a lighter to me?

Any thoughts?

Thanks for looking.

Sorry that I don't have any experience with lighters -- though I know they have their own interest group among us -- but that eagle/swaz sure looks like it came to life on a political dagger's grip -- SA, NSKK or SS.

Reputed latvian, is an oxy moron. Stop buying their crap, and spend it in the canadian shops. you will do yourself a favor.

LOL!! No markings I guess.

It is being sold in Canada and I didn't buy it. Like I said, the story about the lighter is the current owner bought it in Latvia. Was 30% interested but figured it was fantasy so I double checked. You will have to talk to the person selling it about buying outside Canada


Thanks for the replies guys

Hey...if its like 20.00 and you take a shine to it for your own personal use, that's OK ...buy it, but make sure you buy the RK ash tray to go in the man cave for the next cool visiting collector smoke in. It looks like a fake sa dagger eagle added to it, not even an original. Where I live by the way we are legally allowed to purchase the medicinal smoke for medical purposes, and now next year will be marketed legally to anyone for recreational purposes. Of course I am not suggesting that is what you smoke, as that is breaking the law. But I bet next year the show attendances here will be doubled If those who haven't seen colorado yet want a better look at this beautiful state.

Its been a good 25 years since I tried that

The fellow is asking 10 x $20.00 = $200

And yes, I love Colorado, reminds me of here but just a little warmer

Thanks for confirming what I had figured guys
