Bullion Badge

This would not be RCMP as the crown and 3 stripes would be separate and not joined. If it was RCMP, the rank would be a Sgt.

RCMP items

Mike

I thought so frm the picture you posted.

FYI, the buckle should be on the left side of the hat when worn with the end of the belt that goes through the buckle pointing to the back.

RCMP shoulder patch

Phillip

Bill is right this patch came out in the 80's.

It is not the current one. The current one is similar but the word police is under the crest making the patch a little bigger.

Unless I am doing something wrong, when I click on the link all I see is the add and no pictures.
