      Well i give it a try

      The needle and catch dont look like GWL
      Normaly GWL has a catch molded directly to the bagde

      You have to wait for more inputs on this one

        Another reproduction in my opinion. There are some pretty obvious pitting on the obverse, especially on the high points which reveal a casting IMO. The reverse hardware is also not correct for GWL IABs.

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

          Detlev does state the hardware is repaired replace in the CAO if I read it right, but I still have a hard time with these GWL's. Very convenient though that the hardware is replaced ,which I believe is the easiest way to spot the fakes.
          I just don't trust these badges, they frustrate me now.
          I think Tom is right with the pitting though especially on the bayonet blade
