Title: Anyone know anything about bear black mag arrows?
Post by: Flbowhunter on March 18, 2024, 11:43:16 PM

I have a chance to get 60 of these in 2117 for 36 bucks a dozen. I’ve heard some of these older aluminum arrows are made of a softer allow that’s easier to bend. I love 2117 xx75s but I’d like to know if these are of a similar quality.

If they are the ones I am remembering from the 80’s they were made in Korea. Marketed under a couple of different names. There was also a camo shaft that Bear sold as well. I still have a few of those. As for quality , better than Gamegetters but not as tough as XX75 IMO. They are not the same as Bear Metric Mag, those are made from Easton X-7 alloy.

Thanks for the info gunner. I’m not sure if these pictures will help with identification. He dropped to 2.25 a shaft. They’re full length at 34”. I think I’m gonna go ahead and pull the trigger on them.
