Title: Grimes collection
Post by: sticknstring+ on May 26, 2014, 10:25:00 PM

I've been gathering these for a lot of years. I found the first one at a garage sale twenty five or so years ago. It's the one with the yellow and black wrapped handle and the gold anodized limbs.

Cool collection how do those shoot?

I've only shot the laminated limbs which shoot real nice. I've heard to many stories of the aluminum ones exploding to try them. The round solid glass limbs on the longbows will probably survive the apocolypse but I haven't tried them yet.
