$1200 is a fair price for an immaculate A riser with the correct limbs. The C riser is the target model and the longest riser. I would go with the A.

thanks danny ,done a search and seen them , i like the looks of the a riser better, the limbs are 56",im sure i can find a set longer.
-
well the serial number is A 1646 if the real bow doc can pm me i would like to ask him a question, thanks.

You won't need a set of limbs that make it any longer. I have three Bear "A" takedowns, two with #1 limbs, making a 56" bow, and one with #2 limbs. Unless you have a really long draw length -- like 30+ inches -- you will be fine. I draw 28.5 inches and the 56" bear takedowns are so smooth that they are in a class by themselves.
You will love that bow -- if you decide don't want it please PM me. I will take it.

ive wanted one for sometime ,i will have the money to spend on one,now i got to find a bear quiver ,some bear broadheads.and i should be set. i cant wait!!!!

Missagain- The A riser is a great bow and a good price. Bear made three length limbs and if you look around you can fine a set that will make it 56" (which you found) 58", or 60". Even though I prefer the longer B riser, the A is a classic and probably the more popular of the three riser models. Congratulations. BTW- 28" won't be a finger pinch problem in my experience. Grant

Also, contact me about the quiver and broadheads. Not for sale but maybe to give- it is Christmas, LOL. GY

If hou want to search there are some topics here about those bows with pics and serial numbers.

Missagain,
It sounds like you are going to take that bow. Congratulations! You have a real winner there, and I am sure you will love it. I may have some Bear green razorheads around here, too, that I could send your way. I also might have some other Bear stuff from the 70's to get you up to speed. Let me know what you need. No cost -- just helping another archer. Betwwen Grant and me we can get you to a half dozen or more razorheads to get you authentically Bear.
Merry Christmas.
