    Pab 25

    Here’s one for you experts, I need a bit of help. I am NOT a combat badge expert, so I rely on my friends at WAF for help on this type of badge!

    Everything in the detail of this PAB is sharp. The back needle is separately silvered. The back has a ‘silky,’ rather than ‘soapy’ feel you have with a casting. Legit in every way, but feels a bit heavier than another that is original. I don’t have scales at the moment. So I can’t give exact weight.

    suggestions are very welcome, as always, my friends!

    John,
    It's a cast fake for me.

      Hi,
      I'm not 100 percent sure that it's a fake. the tendency is negative but for security you need detailed pictures of the needle system. especially from the hook.

            I too would like to see some better pics of this one, in particular the catch and hinge like fafnir says. There are some red flags though so I am tending to think it’s a fake as well. The rivers are well done if it’s a fake.

            If it doesn't have a hinge and catch, I'm not interested......well, maybe a little

              John,
              I don’t like it either, but clearer shots of the hook from the sides to show if there are shear marks would definitely help make a final decision.

                Thank you gentlemen.
                I will try to post nice catch and hook photos,
                especially from the sides. Thank you so much for your help my friends!!

                  For me fake as well. Box is wrong, head seems to be totally different and the crimp is also not what you see on originals. Wing holes are really small too.
