uni-bushing for a 2020 legacy?
« on: August 11, 2007, 09:01:00 AM »
I've got a friend who would like to possibly switch over to the Easton Uni-bushing system.  He is currently shooting Easton Legacy 2020's.  Easton doesn't list a uni-bushing for 2020's but I'm thinking that something will fit.

What uni-bushing will fit a Legacy 2020??


Thanks,
Jerry

Curious as to why you would install a uni bushing in a 2020?  You'd have to cut the swage off and then install the bushing, but I gotta ask...why?

I have Unibushing on my 2020 Indoor target arrows.
I use 1913 Unibushings and works OK.
I think it is not the exact diameter but works OK.
Hope this helps.

Otto,

For convinence sake. You can break a nock or shoot out a nock and have it replaced in just a moment without messing with glue. They are also great for fine tuning fletching placement on the shelf.  If you dont like where the flecthing is contacting the shelf or riser, you can rotate the nock a touch without heat, glues, etc.

Cutting off the swage isn't a problem as long as your arrows are long enough that you can still make your finished arrow length.

Okay...I'll buy that.  I've got a mess of 2117's with uni's in em.  I've found it's virtually impossible to Robin Hood a shaft with a uni in it.  The bushing is strong enough that it'll swell up a bit from the impact but it won't allow one shaft to penetrate the other.

Thanks for the input.

I believe Easton is consolidating insert and componets for their aluminum shafts.I've heard that 1913 inserts have replaced the 2020 inserts.I've heard they don't fit as good but they work.Easton makes a uni-bushing for 1913 called the X-uni-bushing which will then take a  X-nock,same nock used in axis/mfx arrows.I haven't tried them yet,but I think their future in aluminum arrows is the new Gamegetter line.I like uni-bushing in my 2018 shaft.I busted four nocks last year and didn't hurt the shaft,just had to pull the nock and replace it.
