Title: 24SRT-X1816 arrows
Post by: darin putman on June 10, 2012, 11:46:00 PM
So I bought some bear boadheads attached to some of these arrows shiny aluminum shafts, softest aluminum  shaft I ever saw or shall I  say most flexible.Really easy to straighten though and seem to fly well out of my kids recurve about thirty of them think I'll let him shoot them any reason not too?Old definatly but not too valuable I don't think.

It's an artifact since in the 60s that's all we had back then if we wanted to shoot aluminum. I painted a dozen black to hunt with. It worked.

Eastons first alloy from about 1946 till they went to the X 7 then added the XX75 in the early 60's. They had a shaft marked Swift which was the lowes end shaft they make. 24 SRT-X where the top of the line in there day tho.
