Can she be fixed???? 1959 Grizzly.

Hello all, was wondering if you all think this baby can be fixed or is she fire wood?

I've done re-tips on several '59 Grizzlys and seen stress cracks as bad or worse and they all still shoot just fine. Get some Loc-Tite in the stress cracks and some Phenolic or glass scraps for the tips. An easy fix.

Don't let that one go in the heap!  I don't know the weight, but she just may have a few more deer left in her...that's one that is meant to be used, and it should be a fine shooter.
