Help identifying Bear Montana, please.
« on: October 24, 2012, 09:01:00 PM »
Hello all, thank you in advance for any help you may provide.

I just picked up a used Bear Montana.

I have not seen another one like it.

Any info you could provide would be awesome (Value, materials etc.)

I guessing by the grip that it's a newer one....but I have never seen one with a laminated riser or Zebra wood lams.....I like it! If they made more like that they would sell a lot more of them than they do.....! I had 2 Montana's and they shot great!
In the beginner's mind there are many possibilities. In the expert's there are few...So the most difficult thing is always to keep your beginner's mind...This is also the real secret of the arts: always be a beginner.  Shunryu Suzuki

Thank you Ron!

I have found a couple of Commemorative Montanas that look similar, but they said so on the limbs and have a compass inlaid.

I seriously doubt I have anything special, but I cant find another that looks like it.

Thank you Eric. It would appear it is a 2007 model as well.

Sorry, I don't have a clue. I only knew what it was because in 2007 it was a toss up between that or a PLGA from Black Widow.

Unfortunately I  don't. I was a substantial increase over the basic price though. Are you looking to sell already or curious if you got a deal?

Curious if I got a deal. The guy would not budge off $375 until I showed him the MAP price of a new one. I got it for $300 even.
