A Shot in the Dark LLC

A Shot in the Dark Emblematics is a Colorado-based custom emblematics company specializing in premium challenge coins, patches, badges, pins, and commemorative artwork for law enforcement, fire, military, and public safety organizations.

We believe every design should tell a story. Rather than relying on generic templates, we work closely with our clients to create one-of-a-kind pieces that honor service, commemorate achievements, and preserve the legacy of the people and organizations they represent. Every project is thoughtfully designed with purpose, incorporating meaningful symbolism, agency history, and mission-driven artwork into a product that becomes a lasting keepsake.

Our designs feature highly detailed 3D sculpting, unique custom shapes, premium finishes, and meticulous attention to detail. Whether its a SWAT team challenge, agency badge, memorial patch, unit insignia, or commemorative award, we are committed to producing artwork that stands apart from the ordinary.

At A Shot in the Dark Emblematics, we understand the traditions of the professions we serve because we’ve lived them. That experience allows us to create designs that are authentic, meaningful, and worthy of the individuals who carry them.

Every design has a mission. Every piece tells a story.
