Also lt. meines Wissen und auch meinen Quellen is das IR 31 ein reguläres ungarisches Regiment:
Generell kann man sagen, deutsche Regiment hat bis 1809 den Raubenhelm und danach den Tschako, bei den Ungarn wars genau anders herum. NatĂĽrlich gabs ausnahmen und man muss davon ausgehen das nicht sofort 1810 alle Regimenter mit dem neuen Zeug ausgestattet waren. Das muss man sich dann im Detail ansehen
Hier einige Infos zur Geschichte und zur Uniform des IR 31
K.K. IR 31 – FML Johann Benjowski (Benjovszky) von Benjov – 3 battalions
der SiebenbĂĽrger Regiment

At Ebelsberg the Brig. Hofmeister was always under Div. Vincent but in a rearguard sector led together with the Div. FML Emmanuel von Schustekh. Vincent deployed the Brig. Hofmeister with the Chevaulegers at Klein-MĂĽnchen in order to support the extreme rearguard retreating under the French fire (Brig. Bianchi). The brigade Hofmeister found the new positions full of all sort of carriages and material. So was forced to deploy north of the village. They were attacked by the French cavalry and retreated till the bridge (Traun river) repulsing the advancing enemies with bravery. However when the French guns began to bombard the situation becam critical and they withdrew on the opposite river bank. There the regiment lost around 598 men in total, of which, it was referred, 189 sunk in the cold river waters.
