Hi Graham I have the one on the right and have not been cable to identify it. The one on the left crossed pistols could have a Military Police link?

Is the one on the right just a poor representation of the one on the left?

Hi Leigh
I think the one on the right is a woven version and is less detailed

Hi, the badge on the left is either RCMP or OPP pistol qualification. The one on the right is a travesty.

Just for FYI, but he US Army military police use crossed pistols on their insignia. These are not US however.

Enlisted collar dog. Officers is just a pair of crossed pistols without the disc backing.

Not a worn badge.

Are the crossed pistols used as Military Police insignia within the various UN Missions?
I remember they appeared on UN MP Kosovo bulletins etc.
