I am shooting some Beman arrows that with 470-15 on the side. They are very slender and they have nocks that slide over the outside of the shaft. I looked at a sponsors site and don't see the nocks on there? what nocks are they and where can I get them? They also have a tapered adapter at the point end for screwing in tips. Any other insight on these arrows is welcomed. Thanks.
they are older beman arrows the taper on the front is called an outsert and an over the shaft nock, they are the first type of carbon arrow that beman came out with, dont know about where to find nocks for them, i havent seen them kind of arrows in years
Yes they are older style,you might be able to find nocks and outserts on the big auction site.Cabela's sold some arrows similar,matbe they might still have some componets.I believe they were 15/64" and 16/64".
check cabela's
You might also try your local pro shop if you have one in the area.
I have those same shafts. I was able to get some nocks and the outserts at Broken Arrow Archery near Portland. I don't think they make these anymore so buy'em while you can.
A friend of mine had over a dozen of these arrows. He tried to find nocks for them and was informed that they were no longer available. They take a nock that is square cut inside rather than tapered. I cut some 1" long pieces from another carbon arrow(Cabela's extreme stalker 400)and glued the pieces over the nock end of the bemans(kinda like footing them). I pushed them on to the arrow until they were flush with the end of the arrow. I then drilled into the center of the arrow and opened it up until a G-nock would press fit into the drilled hole. I don't remember what size bit I used but 1/8" sounds right. It worked perfectly. The added sleeve helped support the arrow enough to allow the g nock to be installed without worry of the arrow splitting.
