I have a Bear TD with the Fascor limbs, it came in a semi hard zippered case, with gold Bear Archery emblem on the cover. Anyrate, this bow has a paper sticker inside the one limb latch with the number "B10187" I assume this is a "B" handle and of course the ser. no. Now the limbs are marked with a different number. They are marked "1-12891". The wieght for a "B" handle is marked as "B.60"-48#". My real question is, are all Bear TD limbs interchangeable? I know the "76" model are different. Thanks
-
All the T/D limbs made for the latch system should be interchangeable, even the brand new ones - but someone with more knowledge will soon proof or disproof what I said.
But I have a question for you. I assume your B-riser is a Magnesium B-riser, correct? Somewhere around the serial number of your riser "the strut" was incorporated. Does it have "the strut" or not?
-
Yes, it is the magnesium riser. I do not know what this strut would be. Both right and left sides of the latch and it's hinge are identical.
-
Ah, sure ... sorry for not explaining right away.
The reinforcing strut is (or is not) located above the sight window - have a look in our current Mag-riser threat (http://tradgang.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=14;t=001551;p=3) , where bowdoc posted a pic with knife blades pointing to the strut - or no strut ...
-
Yes, it has the strut just like the red riser.
-
Good bow yes all T/D limbs will work on any riser with the latch.Yours must be a 1975-1976 what color are your limb tips...bd
-
The limb are black and the tips are a pinkish red? In the Bear case that it came in, is a paper with the title heading "The Fred Bear Take-Down Bow". It describes handle lengths, limb weights, etc. In the lower left hand corner is a date, "2-70".
