Title: Gray Glass Bears
Post by: Forest Archer on June 25, 2009, 02:20:00 PM

What models and years had the gray glass? This thought came from the '62 Kodiak thread. without wanting to hijack, Thanks, F.A.

I have a 76 K Mag w/ gray glass rather than the green. (Also has a green overlay instead of the normal white...pretty unique bow!)    ;)

I have 2 1955 Cubs with gray glass (although one of them looks green because of the yellowed finish).  I had one person tell me they thought they might be early 1956.  I am thinking 1955 though.

My Kodiak Mag has gray glass with gray/white tip overlays. Has no glass or overlays on back of riser. I believe it's a '63.

There was the light gray glass of the fifties, like my '58 Grizzly (and others) and then, the dark gray glass of the sixties like the '62 Kodiak and other models and years (K-Hunter, K-Mag). I think the gray glass goes well with the dark risers and this look was used well by Browning on the Wasp with Wenge and dark gray glass.
