Funny story. In the 1970s Mauser made several 20mm cased lighters as a promotional gift. The first version had a crimped 'bullet' that acted as a container for the actual lighter. But after several customers had been delayed at the airport with these in their luggage as well as a problem with Italian customs who seized an airforce general's gift, they created a second version with a removable top.
