Fake Badge "Voroshilov Horseman".
He also instigated these badges besides the shooters...may have been a bad General but an inspiration for gongs.

Sorry for being cryptic
Voroshilov Horseman is the correct title, General Voroshilov was a very good shot apparently and the Voroshilov shooting badge is more commonly seen bearing his name.
I think there is a picture on this sight somewhere, probably amongst the voroshilov shooter section. The Finns gave him and his Army a good slapping and he was replaced. But he did well under Stalin’s patronage and survived all the purges....which proves that kissing butt works everwhere. Chris |

Voroshilov Horseman
Established in 1936. Silver-plated brass and enamels.
Guys what do you think of this Voroshilov Horseman Badge currently on offer? My personal view is that it is a fake, it looks like it was made yesterday. Notice there are no rays under the blue enamel and the red enamel is too dark. Eddie.

Eddie,
I agree, the badge is a fake. I should also add that the detail is very poor. Alexei |
