Default Opinion on a few badges

Hi have had these badges in my collection for some time they were part of my Grand Fathers old collection but I put them to one side as I was not sure if they are original or copies.
I am not sure about the East Surrey Regiment badge with regards to the holes on the rear, and the National Motor Volunteers badge is a very heavy cast.
The Harrow School Rifles badges one has blades on the back and the other has loops but again not sure if they are good, the Exeter Volunteer Regiment has a loops fitted but I also have one with a slider fitted so again one might be good and the other not or they both might be copies.
Many thanks for any help.
Andy

Images are a little blurry, however taking that into consideration, the only one that i'd actually be happy with is the East Surrey Regiment.
Others may have different opinions of course

I agree with oc14, the East Surrey is good, but I am not sure about the other badges, VTC items have been copied for years.
