The Rifles cap badge of the pattern worn between 2007 and 2022 by The Rifles of the British Army. This modern rifle regiment cap badge displays the recognised insignia of the regiment in clear relief, incorporating a crowned bugle horn as the principal device.
The Rifles was formed in 2007 through the amalgamation of several historic light infantry and rifle regiments, and its badge incorporates elements representing these predecessor units. The bugle horn symbolises the regiment’s light infantry role, while the overall design reflects continuity with earlier rifle regiment traditions.
Manufactured in silver-plated metal consistent with officer or dress wear insignia, this example provides a sharply defined representation of the modern regimental pattern. The Rifles cap badges are collected as examples of contemporary British Army infantry militaria, rifle regiment insignia, and modern uniform hardware.
