Correct TRF for Artist Rifles Special Forces?
 

I am looking at getting this TRF if it is the correct one for the Artist Rifles Special Forces? It appears to be a brown backing with white design.

Wrong un.

Marc

I've seen that one for sale on an American site listed as :
.

That's a copy of an original.

No, that’s a BAD copy of an original.

My very sincere thanks gentleman!!! I will definitely pass on it for sure.

2 original examples
 

Please see below 2 examples from chaps who were issued with them for a particular deployment to AFG in 2006.

Many thnaks Jon! Would these then be correct for he Artist Rifles, or did they wear something different?

Terry

The patch shown by Jon was for 21SAS(R) whose full title is 21 SAS (Artists)(R), as the Artists Rifles merged with 21SAS in 1947.

Thanks Colin
 

Colin has hit the nail on the head.

Many Thanks Colin! Sure helps me to understand how they became special forces.

Terry

Just for a bit of pedantry the use of (R) is no longer used for the Army Reserve. The title is now just 21(SAS) Regiment.

My example, ident to Jons pair above.

Thanks Bess! No question about knowing a real form a fake. The fake I was considering was only£2 on eBay, but that's £2 I can use toward something valid!!!

Have to love this forum and the people on it!!!

Dont touch it Terry
