ILF fit all other ILF for the most part with only a couple of strange exceptions. I didn't realize Martin was offering an ILF!

All ilf limbs will fit, only Hoyt makes limbs with a different attachment. Where did you get that deal?

They may fit but the weights will vary widely from what is marked on the limbs. Learn before you start ordering.

Martin offered two ILF risers a year ago or so. Not sure they still do. They were called the Saber Pro and Jaguar Pro. The Jaguar Elite is not ILF.

It's my understanding that the newer Jaguar elite limbs / riser is an ILF set-up, and thus you should be able to user any ILF limb set. When most people think of the Martin Jaguar, they thing of the proprietary bolt on limbs. I believe they still sell that base model, but the Elite version is ILF. $69 for a complete bow is a steal - either version.

Some other Martin limb may work. I doubt it would be easy or cheap to aquire after market limbs!

That sure looks like an ILF bushing slot to me. And if the distance from the slot to bolt is correct, it is an ILF bow. Hell of a deal.

I have the SABER and it's not ILF but it's a AWSOME shooting bow

"That sure looks like an ILF bushing slot to me."

It does indeed.

Can you post a picture of the limb butts, top and bottom?

Show the other side of the limb, from what I see, those aren't ILF limbs.

From: oldgoat

But that does appear to be an ILF slot on the riser.

I hope the link works, may have to cut and paste it into the address bar. It is a picture of the limb butts on ILF limbs

Larry it still may accept ILF limbs, it's quite likely the only difference between the two models is the limb that it comes with. Those limbs are not ILF but the riser looks like it may be, if you could get that link to work you would see ILF limbs don't have bolt holes, they have slots instead. You don't do anything with the bolts on an ILF riser to take the limbs off, you just unstring it and the limbs pull right out. I'm sure there is somebody in your area that has an ILF setup that you could check, they are pretty common among target archers.

I think the price went to $98. also that limb mite be a regular jaguar limb...ron

From: Firewater

The $69 price was black Friday only, no it is $98, still a good deal. They only have 40 and 45lbs RH versions, I ordered one for bowfishing. The riser is ILF compatible, but you get the standard bolt on Jaguar limbs. Nice to have options though.
