Mike,

Early a/a badges had a problem with breaking. Consequently various changes were made to designs. You do see the odd a/a with a riveted brass slider made by Gaunt London from the late50s-early60s. I have had a Q/C REME and a RE one with brass sliders and have seen a few others. Not very common and they were back to a/a sldiers by 1958 and the new Inf Bde badges.

Alan
