You can get the flaming grenade from here for 6 in plastic:

Over priced. The grenades go for about £2.

Thanks for that Alan......could you be so kind as to post a link to where they can be purchased for that price?
I have in the past seen them for a lot less than 2 pounds in junk boxes at shows but I cannot post a link to one of those junk boxes. There is a gun badge on ebay right now: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Plastic-Econom...d=p3286.c0.m14 and two collars (maybe): http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ROYAL-ARTILLER...d=p3286.c0.m14 But thats an auction.

RA etc.
I have just checked the plastic 'gun' cap badge on eBay and (at this time) it is 51.00 with the reserve not yet met. Clearly the vendor knows the value of the item and I agree with previous comment - this is a VERY scarce item. Good luck. David

I see that the RA plastic cap badge is up to 67.00 with the reserve not yet met. I hope that our friend who was offered one for 25.00 took up the offer !!!!!!!!!!!!!! Regards. David
