Default Queens Own Yeomanry, badge variants please

Hello
Could someone please let me know the badge variants of the QOY fox badge please. I know there's an anodised, i'd like to know the different makers names on those please.
Also I know there's a Bi metal, variants on that please.
And officers Sil/Gilt please.
And not sure at all on the variants of the officers bullion badge. And any pictures would be great.
Your time and help are appreciated.
Thank you

Hi,
Queens Own Yeomanry anodised aluminium cap badge - NATO Stock Number (NSN) 8455 99 1364746.

I have in my collection examples marked :-

Smith & Wright Ltd
JR Gaunt Bham
Firmin London
Dowler Birmingham
unmarked slider
FIRMIN (this is in a sealed Firmin & Sons Ltd bag dated 25/8/06)

There are also anodised aluminium shoulder titles in gold that accompany this badge - QOY.

This is by no means comprehensive and I'm sure there are other makers, but should be your starter for 10!

Regards all

Bess

Thanks Tony for the pictures, yes, I thought I'd heard the Bi metal was a private purchase.
Anything on the bullion badges.

There are some Officers Bullion examples here for you, for both the beret and colored side cap.
