Alexei,
Why don't you think it is fantasy?
It doesn't look official to me. With no republic or other info and the date of 1917 it implies that it is for the whole KGB. Yet we know there is a nice 70th KGB badge issued. Also I have never seen another square-ribbon KGB award.
It does look like a veteran badge. My guess would be fantasy/veteran badge made by one of the veteran's associations.
But maybe it is genuine but nit specific to the OKP - Kremlin Guards.
