Description

Step into true Americana heritage with this bold vintage belt buckle featuring the iconic American eagle and the famous inscription:
“THE RIGHT TO KEEP AND BEAR ARMS.”

This substantial Western-style buckle showcases beautifully detailed scrollwork, a proud raised eagle, and classic 1970s/80s brass toning. A perfect example of the patriotic buckles popular across the USA during the late 20th century.

This particular buckle is sold as spares or repairs, as it is missing its belt loop/holder on the back. The hook remains present. Ideal for collectors, restorers, crafters, or anyone who appreciates iconic Western buckle design.


Maker & History – Lone Star Belt Buckle Co. (USA)

The faint maker's mark on the back — a square cartouche with decorative scrollwork and the letters “LONE…” — identifies this piece as being made by the Lone Star Belt Buckle Company, a respected American buckle maker active from the 1970s through the 1990s.

Lone Star produced a wide range of Western, rodeo, patriotic, and novelty buckles, often in brass or bronzed alloys with raised motifs. Their Second Amendment and Eagle designs are especially popular with collectors today.
