"In heraldry, an armiger is a person entitled to use a coat of arms (e.g., bear Arms, an 'Armour-Bearer') either by hereditary right, grant, matriculation, or assumption of arms"

"A Scottish Armiger is a person who has a coat of arms recorded in the Public Register of All Arms and Bearings in Scotland in the Court of the Lord Lyon in Edinburgh. The Society of Scottish Armigers is a United States of America IRS 501(c)(3) educational entity organized to provide the public with information about the Scottish system of heraldry and its fascinating traditions, customs and laws."
