I have a Bear Recurve Grizzly, Canada 1953. The marked numbers are: serial #, amo-56", 45#. Please explain what amo-56" means. Is this the string length? Thanks.

AMO 56" means your bow length but the actual string length will be about 4-5" shorter. AMO was a standard that all archery companies had to abide by. Anyway...if you order a Dacron string for your bow, you order AMO 56"...
