Opinions on Infantry Assault badge and general assault badge

[JanC]

Hello guys,

Insignia/ medals/ awards and stuff are not my speciality. So I need some opinions on the IAB and GAB. Are they good? Or what's wrong with them?

Thanks for your expertise.

Hi Jan,

Both are fakes unfortunately.

The IAB is a nicely made fake by Staegemeir, its a copy of a Schickle.

The GAB looks to be a poor cast fake with really bad reverse hardware.

Hi Tom,

Thanks for your message.
I had them for about 10 years. So I got busted...

Best regards

Sorry, but I have to agree with Tom. Stewy

Hi Jan,

I agree with Tom D and Stewy. Both badges are fakes.

Moving this thread to the Heer/Waffen SS War and Qualification Badges forum.

Best regards,

Thanks for your expertise guys.

Sorry for putting it in the wrong thread.
Like this you see you can't trust people...I was told by the seller the GAB was from a member of the "6 SS Freiw Sturmbrigade Langemarck". I already had my doubts at the moment...

Cheers

Jan
