Schützenauszeichnung für die Kavallerie

Founded 13.6.1871. The criteria for obtaining it were similar to those for the infantry rifle cords, including everyŕňyearčs requalification. The badge was made of brass, with a stylized image of a crossed Werndl rifle and a Gasser revolver in its center. When the Mannlicher system repeater was introduced into the arsenal, the badge was used for a longer time, but the new badges carried a picture of the new weapon. However, the introduction of the Steyr c.1907 pistol, which gradually replaced the Gasser revolver, did not affect the appearance of the badge.

In 1906, colour differentiation of badges was introduced. The badges of the Kavallerie and Landwehr had the centre of the badge painted čblack, while the Maďar Honvédi had čred. Newly produced badges were dyed directly by the manufacturer, but Type 1 and Type 2 badges were to be paintedť at regimental level. However, this did not happen very often, because the soldiers preferred highly polished brass badges, resembling gold.
In addition to the classic type, there is a variant with a smooth edge, but this is not an official version, rather a manufacturer's variant.
