Post by: 450 marlin on August 27, 2009, 06:42:00 PM
Starting a new thread for odd ball Bear limbs, if your looking for a single limb or have one someone could use the guys on this forum can usually fix you up.

Anyone have a lower #2 limb without a partner laying around....
50# 58"
48# 62"
43# 68"
White Tip 2-4884 serial number

Let me know if you have one...Roy

Interesting thread. Occasionally I have had one Bear TD limb sitting around with no where to go, usually after something rather unpleasant happened to it's mate. Trying to somehow match it with another similar solo limbs is probably better than two solo limbs dying a slow, sad death on their own. No guarantee how'd they shoot together, but who knows. They would certainly display just fine.

On a similar note, does anyone have a dusty, broken-limbed 1965 or 1966 Bear Kodiak laying around? I'd like the riser section for a grip-modification experiment.

Good luck on the limbs.

Just threw a Grizzly & Kodiak riser in the dumpster a couple of weeks ago.

Hey Bill- I have a busted '68 Super K that you can have but I've already modified the riser somewhat.                           Grant

grayling limbs rose tip serial # 1-15333
A-56"-48#
B-60"-46#
C-68"-42#

I have both limbs but the lower limb is cracked at the wedge.

I'll take $100 for the set.

Keep in mind that if you have a white limb, or a limb with another color tip, they still should work with another limb of the same specs.  Not great as a matching set for collector's value, but still shootable.

Also, you can reverse top and bottem limb by drilling a new locator pin whole, or removing the locator pin.  This may require some tillering on one limb or the other.

Half of the set is in shootable condition.  If they both were, they would be $300.  :knothead:

I am sure of that Jack. My limbs are 45# and would like to get something closer to 50#.

I have a set of 50# Black limb w/white tips ("70) pristine that I have listed with my Ultra Mint B riser.

I intended to sell them with the riser, but I would let them go separately for $400, and I can sell the riser by itself.

The limbs do not have matching serial numbers as I stated in my classified add, but they are a matched set for shooting purposes.

$400 might sound a bit high but try to find original '70 limbs in 50#, especially in the condition these are.
