Both could be fake but badges have more value for a military person. So don't laugh and insult of these types of badges.

Simbadjuly: What i believe Stu is refering to, is that these may not be the original badges awarded for accurate shooting, but rather copies made to decieve collectors. He is not saying shooting awards are not actual awards, but rather just these individual pieces.

All the best,

Sam.

Indeed - both appear to be modern fakes. The sunken enamel, poor swastika and "fishy" blue glimmer to the enamel give them away. Back details of the gold one are particularly bad. The grind marks to the metal rings show poor finishing.
