Title: Need some info on this Bear Kodiak please
Post by: fz4vgq on January 30, 2013, 03:47:00 PM

Hi Guys, I may have the oportunity to purchase this bow but I really don't know what year it is ?  From what I read on Kodiak history I'm guessing mid 50's ???

Thanks guys

It's a 1952 I had Emailed the seller earlier today but haven't heard back so figured it was gone.

If so then someone got a heck of a deal on that one...... as long as the blurry photos aren't hiding something.

Thanks for the info Jack.
