Title: Bear Snap on Quivers
Post by: Archersteve on June 20, 2007, 02:18:00 PM

Are these things ambidexterous or are they made specifically right or left handed? I am looking for one to fit a LH Bear Kodiak Hunter.
Thanks for the help

Yes the spring arm type are left and right, as are the leather top and most of the green 4 arrows quivers.

Yes, if you are interested in parting with it.

I may still have a lefty if you need it.  If so, let me know and I will try to find it.  I bought it several years ago off theauction site we must not mention and was not paying attention to LH or RH.

I have used it on a right hand bow, but the arrows have to sit out in front of the riser instead of between the riser and the string.  Awkward!!  Let me know.

Just picked up a REALLY nice Bear 4-arrow snap on quiver - the first one I had ever seen.  Brown metalic top with leather (?) on the very top and on the back.  Very nice design and extremely light.  Looks perfect on my K-Hunter and on my K-Mag.  Are these hard too find in good condition?

Thanks.

Doublegun, those are neat little quivers and were the first or early versions (50's and 60's).  I think Bear made quite a few and they are still readily available if you look.  Prices for a nice used one seems to be in the $40-60 range.

One small problem - it won't actually fit on my K-Hunter.

At least you have one for your K-Mag.

THe arms are expandable by loosening the clamps on the main rods.  They slide up and down.  If you are luckey, it may stil lfit your K-Hunter.
