    Default Trench Lighters

    Hello all,

    I have always enjoyed these things. A couple of 'trench' lighters.

    One is crafted from a .303 bullet dated '42. The other lighter is tiny, smaller than a pinky finger and appears to have some age.

    Apologies for the pics. Very overcast here today.

    Nice pair, the RA one is a US 30-06 bullet made by Remington Arms Co., Bridgeport, CT

    Many thanks René, I have a bit to learn regarding guns and ordnance.

    I looked around and have placed it next to a bullet I am pretty sure is a .303?
