Default Dating Irish Rangers Kilt Badges.

Is there a way to tell the difference between Royal Irish Regiment and Royal Irish Rangers kilt badges ? 1st two pictures show the early Irish Rangers badges, I believe made in Pakistan. Next two show an A/A set. The last two show silver coloured backed badges, the RUR and RIF badges are marked FIRMIN. The Inniskilling badge has no makers mark, never seen a Firmin marked Inniskilling kilt badge, though they might have made them. Is there a way to ID A/A kilt badges produced after the formation of the Royal Irish Regiment in 1992, and the earlier Irish Rangers badges ?
