silver rising sun badge?

Yeah - they are Army surplus stores though these days they have very little in the way of actual army kit. More camping equipment these days.

Adding to this thread on silver rising suns. I have the Commonwealth Rising sun in silver. I also have a whitemetal Australian Military Forces rising sun (maker mark Amor), after an opinion or any information regarding this badge.

hi
can you show a pic of your Commonwealth Rising sun in silver?
this badge you show here has been discussed several times. whitemetal or sometimes in chrome plate depending on manufacturer were used by armoured corps. made by amore, luke, stokes etc.
