Hi Guys
The Infantry Militia of the Colony of Victoria in the Victorian period, ie Aussie Pre Federation, ie pre 1901 wore a brown leather belt with a "Snakes Clasp" in white metal. The officers belt had sword slings and the ORs had a plain waist belt. I have an officers belt with sword slings and a sword to go with it which has a Melbourne Retailers mark, a QVC and a stringed bugle in the crotchet.
Regards
Phil.
