I am legal to carry but do not have a .44 Mag but I do have a .45 1911. I just feel that a ground hunt would be a thrill of...

Re: Special run on discont. bows, would you buy?

I think the best one with a chance would be the matrix 355. That is a great model with plenty of power that could use a “Refresh”. Take a pound off and I would need restraining! :lol: i would probably have to get the credit card out if this ever came to be :thumbup: just so i had 2 of them :lol:
