Title: Look what I found!
Post by: Erick S on May 24, 2012, 08:42:00 PM
Found an old Bear Kodiak Magnum and Ben Pearson Colt on the local classified site this afternoon. I was able to get both of them for $160, I am hoping I got a good deal. The Bear is in real good shape and the Pearson in in good shape. I am not sure of the years, any ideas?

Never mind, I guess I am not smart enough to figure this out. Sorry I wasted your time looking at my post. If I could figure out how to delete it I would.

I was around 14 years old, living on NOB Norfolk, when I spotted a BP Colt at a flea market. Mom gave me the twenty dollars to buy it, and I still have it. Do not look so crestfallen. That was in 1970.    :D  
You made out like a bandit!

I use a Bear Weatherest on it because of the flat shelf.

A friend of mien shoots a Pearson Colt since one year and hes very happy with it. Great shooting bow, nice and stable in the hand.

Great deal!
