I own one of those actual bows, the model I have I believe it was built in the mid 70s it is 52" AMO. I was told at one time those bows were offered by K Mart back in the day. for $130 bucks jump all over it you won't be dissappointed, if by chance you dont like it look me up I would be interested in it. they built an earlier model that was a 56" AMO version but it was the dogleg version, it was actually called (Black Panther)not as appealing to me. The shorter bows were marked in a double numbered weight(IE: 45/50 40/45 50/55)I personally have been on the hunt for the 50/55lb version.

Motorhead is correct they were sold in department stores in the 70's and were not found in the Bear catalogs. Good bow and the price is decent if it is in nice condition.

I have a preference for the 56" model,  but both are fine bows...especially for that price in that condition.

Well I bought the bow and my nephew has laid claim to it she is in awesome shape there is absolutly no stress cracks no holes except a stableizer hole that I think might be factory after looking at her she has a few scratchs that are only in the finish no deeper and will easly work out great bow and I got him down even lower she is 52amo and marked 45/50 and smokes an arrow outi think it is a good deal thanks for all the info guys later Jake
