Like so many others I love mine. #45 at 28" which is my draw length. I think the old saying that shorter bows pinch your fingers has been repeated for so long that nobody questions it anymore, My 73-75 KMag is a delight to shoot. And to top it all off I picked it up at a garage sale for $25.

My first recurve was a K Mag. I still have it and use it for bowfishing. I bought it of an auction site. I will never buy a Bear off that site again, way too expensive with the shiping. I would keep an eye on trad gang.

I checked back to see how much the bow sold for...$230! woah! Seeing all the positive feedback on the K Mag is solidifying my desire to get one.  I'll def have to keep an eye out on the classifieds.  :)

I have an early 70s kmag i bought for $200 which included postage. It is 50 lb pull. I have a 25 1/2 draw and have had no problems. I really like short bows and it has been a joy to shoot. I don't see what your draw is, but have a feeling you will really enjoy it.

I have a used k mag that was bought off the bay. It was bought by my dad and that's the only reason I kept it. Couldn't tell by the pics but the whole thing was spidercracked. For what it cost I would recommend buying a used custom. I love my km. but for a few more bucks I bought a used toelke that blows my km away.

I refinished the km and it turned out pretty good. But expensive for what it is.  My nomad is just as good for half price.
