Custom takedown recurve limbs for Samick Lightning riser

#1 Post by flyonline » Tue Jun 28, 2016 9:15 pm

I picked up a Samick Nighthawk/Lightning riser the other day, but it came without limbs.

Is there anyone that might be able to do a set of limbs for me? Not looking to match timbers/colour exactly as I'd be after a light set of limbs to start with then upgrade to heavier later on. PM me if you can with a rough estimate on price.

Happy to send riser for measuring/fitting.

Steve

Lancaster Archery in the states would be your best bet mate.

Steve,

3 Rivers Archery list spare limbs in a wide range of draw weights.

Although the exchange rate is not real good they will probably work out considerably cheaper than custom made limbs.

i would also check out John Mcdonald[amso 128] here in Aus first as he might be able to help.Not sure.

Hey bigbob, forgive me for briefly interrupting the thread. I've always wondered about John Mcdonald, why is he never mentioned without '(amso128)' attached to his name?? What does it mean and why is it so important?
An earnest (if irrelevant) query. Sorry all, back to take-down limbs!

Yes, aware of the overseas suppliers for limbs and that it'd be likely to easier/cheaper to go there but figured it'd be worth asking. As it's also available in the EU, I might wait a few weeks and see what the GBP does, might be a few bargains to be had :teasing-neener:

hijack away, I've been guilty myself :lol:

sabinus,I think its because he has such an unusual business name ie, amso 128.that people put it there to direct them them to him.
