Very possible. I don't think I have ever worn the issue badge. I've always worn older badges, they are higher quality, brass, wm, or some type of metal that actually polishes and shines and doesn’t fall apart. It is not at all uncommon for soldiers to hunt down good badges to wear. In my current regiment the issue badge isn’t close to being correct, so the unit purchases the correct badge to wear. Quality can be hit and miss, the last batch came from Hong Kong I think, the quality was poor to say the least.
