Picked this up, yesterday, at a local flea market for $10. Took it to Gander Mtn., today, and got a string for it. Shot it at their indoor range. Not overly powerful, but not bad, either. Good for practicing in back yard or bow fishing.

I've never seen one like this before.

I don't have a pic for it, yet, but the first one on this page is it (top row, left):

I have to say I've never seen an aluminum recurve bow. I will say I had a Wham-O Crossd bow that had an 80 pound prod, (bow) on it when I was 9 or 10 years old. Other than that I can't say I've ever seen an aluminum bow or heard of one until your post.
