[Jewelry making - Article 00033] - [Orchid] Burgess badge pins

[Gary W. Rowe]

========[ Invite a Friend - http://www.ganoksin.com/invite.htm  ]========


    Help!  I have researched diligently for a year or more and have been
    unable to locate a source for large Burgess pins that are used to
    secure law enforcement badges to uniforms.  The large makers likely
    manufacture theirs in-house.  The pin & catch pieces I have been
    sent from the large findings suppliers with whom I deal regularly
    are all too light weight for something as heavy as a brass shield. 

    The pins I require measure roughly 2" in length and are made of at
    least 13 gauge wire. 

    Any assistance greatly appreciated.
