Got in a quick hunt this morning before the heavy rains came in. Found a late 1800's or early 1900's .45 bullet and a possible military pin! Talk about appropriate finds on the 4th of July!

I can use some help on the pin. It's very tiny and has an orange border with a rifle and target as the insignia. Is this a military pin or just something someone sold as a collectible? Any help would be appreciated.

I don't know the pin exactly, but I'm leaning towards a shooting club or something more of that nature.

Never thought of that! Definite possibility. I'll do a Google search along that line and see if anything comes up. Thanks for your help!

Thanks, treblehunter! I'm not having much luck IDing the pin. No markings on the back and Google and eBay searches came up empty. Maybe it's a local pin that some club made up. I just can't imagine why it's so small. Strange...
