I have an original L/H Jim Brackenbury Shadow, one of the last ones made before he died. It is 61#@27" and I have been drawing it to 28.5" for 65# with no issue. It will come with 1/2doz. gold tip trads with 100gr brass inserts, aluminum footings, nock collars, 1/2doz 100gr adaptors, 1doz. 145gr ribteks- new and unsharpened, spare string, silencers and limb buffers on both strings and a brand new hard case with molded foam. Bow is in great condition and shoots awesome. Arrow weight is right at 700 grains. I bought it for my upcoming Africa trip but just had to replace our only vehicle after several costly repairs. Down payment and new reg. is coming directly out of trip saving which may force me to not bring any trophies home if I don't do something. So decision was made to sell this. I will have the use of the outfitters rifle and even though I would love to get an animal with my bow, I'd rather be able to bring what I get back. Hoping someone can help.

Paid well over $800 for all, need to get $600
 
It is a beautiful bow Albert.
 
Yes it is Charlie, thanks. Shoots great, and basically irreplaceable now- made by one of the old great bowyers. I was very excited to use it in Africa, but I would rather be able to bring stuff back, so I'm hoping to pass it on to someone else who will appreciate it. Damn vehicles always getting in the way of saving money and having fun! Going to have to tighten the purse strings till I get back now and hope this sells. Either way I will still be going- it's just a matter of if it's just pics or trophys for home too
 
It's a beauty for sure!

Had an excellent classifieds transaction with JoninCO. A truly honest and standup member. I wouldn't hesitate at all to deal with him again. Thanks, J!

Hi Lance, Hope you well. I collect Mauser rifles and they are very much part of my cultural history in Africa. Would you consider selling the rifle now a year on ? I'd like to place it in my collection of Mauser rifles. Many thx

I saw where you hunted elephant with backcountry safaris in Zimbabwe.
Was looking to book an elephant hunt and wanted to know how your hunt went
and if you would recommend them.

Thanks
Mike
hi, do you know about lions hunters, leopard hunters, and crocodiles hunters of years 1930s-1950s
