The production model came out in 1971. Through it's live time there were 3 production models. They were a bear to sharpen and therfore lacked penetration. They are a cool looking head.

It's a Browning Serpentine. You  say you have a broadhead collection? If you want to know more about collecting then there would be much to gain by joining the American Broadhead Collectors CLub.
Email me with an address and I will sent you one of these Serpentines. Also send me a list or pictures of heads you have available for trade.
If you have some heads you need identified then send a picture of them also.
