DRL / Wound Badge / Inf. Assault

[Brumbar]

Hey Guys................
Scrolling through this forum has made me somewhat paranoid about purchasing anything, however I am gaining a lot of knowledge and insight on what I'm looking at.
So........ having said that I would like your opinions on the following two Badges.
I think they are ok, but before I purchase I ask for your take in them.
As always, thanks for your help.

Hi there,can you post a pic of the reverse with the pin open please. Stewy S

The DRL and the Wound badge are fine. I would say the Inf badge is good too, but I will let Stewy confirm this as it his area of expertise.

Cheers, Ade.

Stewy...sorry but I don't have photo of pins open. These are images I got from the potential seller.

Hi there,better pics would be nice. But from pics you have it looks like an Assmann #2. Interesting to see that it's not properly cut out between Swaz & rifle though. A late war production. Stewy S

You have all been ( yet again ) very helpful..............Thanks
Stewy - I just checked with the seller's site. He in fact has it listed as an Assman #2.
Again thanks guys

In regards to the IAB...It looks to be a good Assmann with "flash" remaining between the rifle and the swazy...This badge comes from Canada I believe and they are a trustworthy group.

Here are couple of my examples to compare.

If you do decide to get the IAB, take care not to break the pin/hinge area of the badge. The pin is soldered to the bar and it's a weak point. The hinge that holds the bar is molded to the badge and can be brittle as well.

Thanks to all............ I will let you know what I buy and post again.
Fisher... the badge is as you say is in Canada as are the rest of the items.
