Title: Question for Bear Collectors?
Post by: Ron Roehrick on December 01, 2011, 06:38:00 PM

I cant remember for sure was it 1965 thru 1969 that the first number on the Serial number designated the year of manufacture on Bear Kodiaks? I have a 1964 serial# 10CA112.

1964's were the the first year for the pointed riser. They are a classic.
