From all that I've ever heard, the Wild Highlanders claim some sort of recognition by Lord Lyon, but whenever seriously questioned on the matter, I've never heard a one give any elaboration on the nature of their "recognition".
No offence to any of those folks, but I frankly don't put much stock in most of what they say- the "history" lessons that they give on such topics as "traditional Scottish martial arts" and "putting on the great kilt" tick their credibility down pretty far, in my book.
