Found it at a local archery shop for a song. Brought it home . Has a slight twist in the lower limb, but otherwise in great shape.

Take a look , guess the make. I’ll tell you what I gave for it and what I believe it is .

I have no idea but it must be something special because you seem pretty excited about it.


I have nothing clever to put here.

Reminds me of a Black Widow I had many years ago.

Yes sir !! It's akin to finding an early Remington Model 7 at a Stevens Model 200 price.

well with my limited knowledge of bows and you being so excited about it then its probably a vintage bear or a black widow.

I'd shoot even if I didn't hunt. Just love to shoot bows.

Now you are talking my language! If we are talking a late 60's or early 70's Remington 700 in 264 or 7mm EXP for a Remington model 7 price I would be touching myself.


I have nothing clever to put here.

Ok. This seems to be the most common thing of everything I've seen and by others agree. A great copy if it is.

Gave $100 for it.
