    Hi. This is my Aymaró 96, an exact replica of Primus 96.

    Hi @Juan. Interesting. Have you tried firing it up?
    The flame spreader looks like it has been deliberately bent inward. Is this to improve combustion?

    No, I just received it yesterday and I still couldn't try. Anyway, the flame spreader was not modify, it seems to be original without marks or dents, 16735219078695858552080096156452.jpg perfectly symmetrical and there is a spare within the box which is identical.

    I traded it by a non working Mauser C96 pistol I didn't want to keep at home.

    Thanks for your reply. Well indeed, it looks original.
    You made an interesting deal. Didn't you try to repair the Mauser?

    No, I didn't. It was always hidden because no one wanted to see it at home. I know their value could be much higher than a stove but my friend was so happy as I'm with the deal.

    That's a neat stove. It's always interesting to see locally made stoves.
