Hey Folks This is a solid fiberglass bow about 60" and pulls 50#. It has built in brush nocks and a small grip. There are no markings on it. It likes 500 grain arrows. Any ideas?

It's a Parabow, B1 or B2 I believe. Shakespeare bought Parabow in 1959.

You don't have the same but you do have one like it. Locksley was made by Pearson, and Ben's company made a ship-load of bows from fiberglass, from kids bows to takedown models.

It's all good Nate. Many of those old bows looked like other ones. Indian Archery made one very similar as well, even with brush nocks on one of their models.
