USMCRECON Posted March 20, 2009 Share #53 Posted March 20, 2009 This one in unarguably a Marine Expert Rifleman badge as it has an EGA superimposed on the crossed rifles. I just recently got this one from eBay. It has a somewhat shorter pin that the other rifle qual badges. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USMCRECON Posted March 20, 2009 Share #54 Posted March 20, 2009 This is a Sharpshooter qual badge, also with an EGA in the center. I'm guessing WW-II era for this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brig Posted March 30, 2009 Share #55 Posted March 30, 2009 a nice Meyers piece with EGA affixed that sold last night for a fair price. would have bid higher but I've recently purchased some other things... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brig Posted April 8, 2009 Share #59 Posted April 8, 2009 this one sold on eBay last night... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brig Posted April 8, 2009 Share #60 Posted April 8, 2009 here's my own modern Marksman with non-reg EGA...similar to the one posted by Hired Gun only the EGA is a bit bigger. This cost me nearly as much as WWII expert badges with non-reg EGAs sell for nonetheless, a nice and uncommon variation that no lineup of non-reg applied EGA badge collection can be without also, notice the SER 437 mark and H&H...once again, I think the SER mark indicates late 50s/early 60s...around the transition period of badges as Korean War era EGAs often have these SER marks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brig Posted October 19, 2009 Share #68 Posted October 19, 2009 another great addition to the collection...expert badge, c-clasp, with EGA attached. notice the ring on the rear of the emblem. any ideas why that's there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
normaninvasion Posted October 19, 2009 Share #69 Posted October 19, 2009 Very handsome badge, 1920s? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brig Posted October 19, 2009 Share #70 Posted October 19, 2009 the c-clasps appeared on this badge around WWI, and were used all the way up until about WWII. no way to tell what actual decade for the badge, it could date from the 20s...but the EGA was almost certainly added in WWII when this practice became commonplace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
