Title: lefty A mag riser - Am I hunting a unicorn?
Post by: Ted on March 11, 2013, 07:53:00 PM

I don't know why I never thought to post this question here, but I just checked out the collectors forum and it seems like you guys might know.  I have been searching for a lefty mag A riser for what seems like forever.  I never seem to find one.  I recently got a B, which is cool; but I've always really wanted an A.

Anybody ever see them?  Were there plenty made?  I know the mag risers were only made for a few years and I think I remember that not as many A's were made.  Could it be the case that very few lefty A mag risers were made?

I see them occasionally on auction, but not too often.

Ted, I'm fortunate to have a few of these and they are some of my favorite shooters without a doubt. Got to keep your eyes peeled and be ready to strike while the iron is hot!

For me the brush rest and 3L grip is so nice!

I picked one up off the auction site a year or so ago.  Several appear annually. Just have to watch for them.  Might also post a wanted ad in the bow classifieds here. They're around.

Ted, I've been trying to track one down for you.  Sooner or later.

Some things just take longer to show up. I looked 8 years for the pouch to my St. Charles quiver! Second one appeared on zbay before the first one had even arrived!
That's how it goes as long as you're still crazy-no problem!   :bigsmyl:
