The Bays definitely received some of these badges as a good friend of mine received one from QM QDG in 1967 from his 'obsolete stores'.
The 1953 CCN Cat No CB3005 denoted the AAG version of this badge. Made by Gaunt.
Cox in Langridge mentions that "some ORs of the Queen's Bays wore the AAG version" and that none were noted wearing the GM version.

Hi Cardiffbloke,
I think that in this case the 1953 CCN references this A/A badge (CB 3005) back to change C 4717 which was a change of intent only and not a 'normal' List of Changes change. However, I do have a delivery note for A/A versions of this badge albeit after the amalgamation with the 1st King's Dragoon Guards.
Regards
Chris
