    Default Brimingham Bayonet Maker

    I had run across an article on Enfield bayonets a while back that when I went back to read it again, it had vanished into cyberspace. The article mentioned a Birmingham bayonet maker named Robert Hughes. I was wondering if any one knew anything about this maker and what marks were on the bayonets they produced.
