For Sale: not trench art

[suburban bushwacker]

a pair of lighters made from MG42 cases.
if there was only one i’d say trench art but as they are a matching pair i wonder if perhaps they are some kind of factory promotional item?
£100 posted to your door.

Sure they are MG42 cases? These look belted, so 13mm or 20mm?

I’ve just spent a few minutes using AI to identify this case.
At first it thought it was a 45 acp case

That’s totally no right of course.

Can you give me the overall case length and inside neck measurements please?
