Hi Neil,
I think you're correct: Bavarian 2nd Reserve Cavalry Regt., 2nd Platoon, 50th Saber.
I've never thought about this before but have you ever seen a German left handed saber? I know from my older brother's experience growing up in Germany in the thirties, that left-handedness was regarded as a terrible deformity which had to be overcome by an effort of will. I doubt that a leftie would have been welcome in a Cavalry Regiment.
Regards, Norm
