Looks ok to me.
Probaly a Cornwall Rifle Volunteers. Possibly the bugle is missing. Try this :- https://www.olympiaauctions.com/sale.../view-lot/288/ Last edited by Mike H; 12-12-20 at 08:30 AM. |

It’s a generic Rifle Vols PBP. Attached are my Gloucestershire and 11th Middx examples. Looking at the slot holes in the back plate of yours which are N/S this doesn’t suit a bugle so it’s possibly the 11th Middx missing St.George. It’s looks to be brass too which when blackened would make it an ideal candidate. I think the Sussex (Battle) RV also wore one too.

Thanks NRM.
The construction is slightly different to BC's, in that mine has 4 screw posts to the reverse. KR, Pete |
