Does anyone recognize this emblem and know where I might find it in vector format?

Gregg, I don't know what it is, but a few things stick out to me, saying it might be privately drawn. One, the gun is new. Most of those don't use newer weapons. Not that it's a "new" weapon, but I just personally haven't seen anything with that new of a gun. I'm sure there's something out there, but think about it, most of the units have years of history, so this stuff comes from decades old designs.

Second, it's got the registered seal on it. I've not seen any military graphics with that on them, but again, I could be wrong, I just can't recall seeing anything with that on it.

I think it's something someone has personally done. I could be wrong though.

Scott,

you're right about the registered mark. Never seen it before on government
or military. Not to say in this day and age things aren't changing?;)

I have a handful of new units to the base I work at that don't have emblems or
shields yet, and quite a few who have changed theirs.

There is a process to go through to change are create a new one and has to
be approved by the Dept of Heraldry and registered with the base historian.

So to be worn officially there is due process.


Gregg you might post it to a Tee Shirt forum that may help.

That is a Police SWAT logo. Special Weapons and Tactics.
Hope that helps.

I think Tim has it. When I search for SWAT logo, that image comes in in various forms.

Frank is correct with center mass inc, they designed the logo. I have used it on a few no sale items...

I did a trace on the image after running it black and white, worked pretty well.
