I dare say that 90% of the public and 80% of the CHL holders have never looked closely at a badge on a holster and would not know if it was the real thing !! And would a Lawman know if it was real, probably not.
Look at all the fake Texas Ranger badges They look like the real McCoy.
The badge thing was a dumb thing in 95' and it still is . Sorry to all the waannabes
