However, many large size Scottish badges were attired with lugs so it appears that the slider standard was amended to lugs in the cases of large badges, or the head dress type that they were to be used on.

I have quite a few that come with both fittings HCR,Life Guards,Gurkha Staff Band,RScots Greys wide wings.

With reference to the QOMY ,ive never seen a lugged version.

The only Scottish badges i can think of that have sliders are Glasgow & Strathcylde uni,St Andrews uni,Edinburgh uni both patterns,Fife and Forfar Yeomanary,RSDG and Greys.
If i remember correctly,the Glasgow Uni badge is lugged.
