I had those brush buttons and those silencers on my K Mag in the mid 1970s.  :thumbsup:

I used to shoot a broadhead just like it called a “missile spike” back in the 70’s. It was a very copied head design as it was called a “red fury” in later years. I harvested my first bowkilled animal with one….a gray fox in 1974.

I know this one isn’t that head; but it brings back some pleasant memories just looking at it.
That is definitely a Missile spike.  I started my hunting with them in the 70s.  My brother was the first to buy them.  He shot one into a cinder block at Toms archery when Tom told him to.  Head and aluminum arrow both held up.

I've let this thread go un answered for too long. I have been having computer problems and reply. The first pic is aMissle Spike broadhead. invented by my old friend C.F. Carrol. He was quite a character.tThat is about the third itteration of that head. The next being the Red Fury.
First version had a glue on ferrule.

One picture of the two small game heads is misidentified. Head on the left is the original Hoyt Magnum Blunt. Earl kept a coffee can full of them back in the shop.   
As it turned out the blade was too fragile and the second generation addressed that problem.

A glue on version would be ideal.

The four blade pictured is the Black Copperhead Slicer. There were a couple more in that line. From  super serrate to everthing rounded like in the target model.
