Bear Mag Handle Takedown

[Lunar-Tic]

Just rescued 7 Bear Mag Handle Takedowns out of a dumpster at work. They are all just 25# bows and show a lot of rough use. I was wondering if these bows have any value or if heavier limbs can be added to the bows?

Are they 76ers? They came in a number of colors. Fiberglass limbs that slid into a pocket.

I just looked, they are Bearcat Takedowns.

OK they would look like this then.

Yes that's what they look like except these have thin fiberglass limbs. I would like to post a picture but I'm not to good with computers. Just figured it would be a shame for these bows to go to the dump. a little banged up but still functional. I have 5 kids between 7 and 12 so they will get put to good use. When they are done with them I figured if they have no value I would donate them to the archery club.

Was the dumpster near Wade's house?  

Cool find, those 5 youngsters will have arrows sticking out of everything in the neighborhood.

Wade uses them as tomatoe stakes.

Middle bow!
Another version of the Bearcat takedown. Older Pic. Just ignore the others... This one is 40#, I understand on heavier lbs. the upper strap on the limb pocket was prone to breakage. Good find for those kids.

Thanks guys for the info. I was just happy to give these bows a pass from going to the dump. They are in good hands now and I will see to it that go to an archery club when the kids are done with them.
