Does anyone happen to know of a source for some old mercury speed nocks.  The new ones are below subpar.

I wonder if someone is still selling some of the old ones.  They went through a period when they were terrible but the ones I'm getting from the Nocking Point seem to be ok.

I love the "old" Mercury speed nocks too.
Last year I placed an ad in the arrows section of the classifieds and a bunch of brothers on here offered up dozens and dozens.

Probably twenty years or so ago , I bought a couple sacks of a thousand and got them for 1 1/2 cents apiece.  A local archery dealer and friend found them for me and really got me a good price but it turned out that they deformed and most of them couldn't be put on the arrow straight.  Chris, that's why I thought you might have gotten some of the old deformed ones.  Even now I don't think the quality control is the best but I sure like the design.

The Nocking Point has Mercury nocks. Mike is a top notch guy to do business with.
