Default Thoughts is it or isn't it?
Is this a Royal Scottish Reserve Regiment.
Badge? Not one I've come across before.
Third image Kipling and King.

There is a Middlesex rifle volunteer badge which is similar to this badge. I don't have a photo of it, but a quick internet search should bring it up.

There must have been a fair few Battalions of this Regiment as everyone has one of their badges!

Thats not a military badge IMHO merely a brooch, produced in their thousands over many years for Scottish women, tourists and the like.

The flimsy rear fittings are typical cheap manufacture for mass produced trinkets and not a standard that would be any use on a military badge.

regards

Simon that's fair comment, the pin is not as stout as one would expect.
