Vintage Rifle Marksmenship Qualification badge w/ Hanging Rifle Bar-Original Pin Back

Original vintage Rifle Marksmanship Qualification Badge featuring a target-centered Maltese cross enclosed within a laurel wreath, suspended above a hanging “RIFLE” qualification bar. Constructed of darkened metal with a classic pin-back attachment, this badge was designed to recognize proficiency with the rifle during marksmanship qualification competitions or training programs.

The badge displays an attractive aged patina and retains its original hanging qualification bar. Its design is consistent with mid-20th-century civilian, military, or youth marksmanship award badges and makes an excellent display piece for collectors of shooting, military, and fraternal memorabilia.
