I'm pretty confident that the Middlesex and Wiltshire are both Birmingham Mint badges - I'm sure others will correct me if I'm wrong !

I agree with the Middlesex being a Birmingham mint badge & Wilts looks one also.

No. 3 is a fake Bedfordshire Yeomanry cap badge.

No. 6 is a repaired ORs RF cap badge which appears to have been messed about with.

Re No. 1 i.e. the 2nd Hampshire Rifle Volunteers badge these have been faked to death courtesy of Martin Marsh. Your badge does not look original.
