Mike,

I think so. I am currently searching my archive to see if one has been on the market.

There are two near matches. The QSA to McKenzie from June 2012 which you mentioned earlier.

My brother and I sold the QSA to C H Herbert in 2011.

QSA (1) Natal (Tpr. Ldr. C. H. Herbert, Murray's Horse)

Trooper Leader C. H. Herbert was the leader of the Mtshwati Rifle Association and commanded it when it was called out for duty during the invasion of Natal. He was appointed a Troop Leader in Murray's Horse, when that unit was raised in Natal before the outbreak of hostilities, by the Hon. T. K. Murray. Prior to the arrival of British reinforcements, Murray's Horse - some 150 men, patrolled wide areas of lower Natal and scouted the country in front of the advancing Boer commandos. It was disbanded in November 1899 following the arrival of British troops.

Herbert's name headed the Mtshwati Rifle Association roll, which he compiled as Trooper Leader but was awarded a QSA as a Trooper Leader in Murray's Horse.

Hi
I bought the QSA to Tpr H Light in 2000 at a Saturday sale of a Pretoria Auction House.
In 2005 I was offered well over £400 for it and I let it go......
