Darn, I enjoy seeing all the new blasters folks have been acquiring...be it a new Kahr, Charter, RIA, Sig, Walther, Ruger, S&W, HK, whatever, I really appreciate folks sharing photos of their booty with us. Now I have a little project in mind for pea shooter I've acquired and while surfing an auction site for items to complete that, I came across something totally unrelated that caught my eye, a belt buckle. I'm not a belt buckle guy, those that come with the belt usually do the job for me, but there was something about this one. I almost did the impulsive "buy it now" thing, but at the last second balked at the $44 plus shipping. I saved it to my cart and continued to surf...about a page later, I found the exact same thing for under $15 shipped. I received it yesterday and have to say, I don't know whether to wear it or mount it somewhere...it might look good as an inlay for a cigar box lid:)

I like the USA cast into the reverse.

One of the coolest buckles I ever laid eyes on. A little heavy I suspect? Durn nice.

Your right, you need one to wear and one to mount someplace.

Wow, there is as much detail on the reverse side of that buckle as the front. If you don't mind, where did you find the 15.00 one? LOL....

Nice! I would definitely make a display. I prefer plain brass buckles, but you did good finding the best deal... what a difference in price! I see those "deals" all of the time, and it usually pays to keep looking.

Very Nice!!!
I, like you, appreciate everyone sharing the stuff they collect.
Whatever it might be.
Kind of like living vicariously through my internet extended family on this forum.
Even though I only have one Kahr bought long ago.
I still very much enjoy coming here and sharing information with my friends.:D

I bought this on eBay. I'm sorry to report that I didn't see where the seller had any others.

I did look some more this evening and found these, but the enamel is done differently. The casting (or clean up) appears slightly different as well.
