Edwards and Langley identify the badge as Badge for Good Shooting Volunteers. Two stars were for different scores depending on the 1861 or later, 1881 criteria.

It so happens that he has an item on ebay that I had been watching and was intending to buy, however, now that he has done the dirty deed, he has lost a sale..................hopefully.

Regards.
