This pin is worn on US Army uniforms to indicate that the wearer is a member of the US Army Field Artillery.
It sure sounds like a Marksmanship Badge for Army or Marines. But these badges had a Maltese Cross without rifles. One class of badges for the Marines had crossed rifles but no cross. So it could be a markmanship badge issued either by a State for that State's National Guard soldier. Or it could be a marksman badge issued for competition. I think soldiers could wear these non-regulation badges on some occasions. What do you mean by "ore pin"? The question says, in part, that it may not be a medal but a "pin". If it's brass, circular in shape, with the crossed rifles in it, than it is simply a branch insignia for the US infantry.
Would have to be more specific but sounds like a pin from the WW1/WW2 era

CAL on a World War 1 military pin with crossed rifles most likely refers to California. It could be a symbol indicating the unit or organization that the individual belonged to, possibly a California-based infantry unit. Further research into specific units or markings may provide more information about the pin's significance and the individual's service.

Current in a standard house is AC (alternate) so it doesnt matter if the live and neutral are crossed. Should the earth and live be crossed then the earth leakage would trip
My first thought was French. And a search of the web found a reference that said the early French Tank crews wore a badge that meets that description. However, I can not find a photo of this. I don't know if it was a badge(pin) worn on their uniform or part of their helmet. Most French helmets have a raised image for the type of unit---usually a flaming grenade. This was attached to the front of the Adrain helmet. So, this is not exactly a pin or badge.Reference: "Army Uniforms of World War 1" by Andrew Mollo & Pierre Turner, Arco Pub, 1978.Above book illustrates the uniform of a French tank crew member and has this text:"The tank commander wears the Adrian helmet with aritllery badge.... In August 1918, a special sleeve badge consisting of crossed cannons surmounted by a knight's helmetwas introduced for crews of tanks."Also recall, that the badge for the Engineers was a breast plate with an helmet resting on it that resembled what was worn during the Napoleonic wars.

Move the large weight first until you find the notch just before the notch where the pin falls down. Repeat with the middle weight. With the last weight move it until the pin falls in the middle of the scale.
