Default Small vickers machine gun badge - 6th Gurkhas

Slightly odd post this in that I don't have an example of the "mystery badge" - but I've just come across a reference in the 6th Gurkhas Regimental history - "In 1928 machine gunners wore a small metal badge of a Vickers machine gun on the left hand side of the field service hat" - I don't think I've ever seen an example of this badge which I assume is similar to the Machine Gun Corps badge ( or maybe not as there's no mention of crossed Vickers guns ) - so I was wondering whether any forum member has a strange Vickers gun badge that they've never properly identified? Or indeed if a member has the badge and knew what it was? - Would love to see any "likely suspects" ! Tim
