Default HAC KC brass - fake?

Fake or genuine?
This is a full size cap badge.

It may be genuine, but has been cleaned to within an inch of its life.

The slider is cut off and two loops badley soldered on.

best wishes

Perfectly genuine. Look closely and you can see where the slider has been removed! Well done.
