How old and made where???
Selfbowman:
Ya the blunts are part of the shaft on some with cork on the ends I think. Plastic knock so probably early 50s guessing.
Hamish:
Here's a nice link re: metal bows. It has more information about manufacture, brands and models. It mentions Tru Temper Bows a US company that made bows from tubing as well. https://www.bow-international.com/features/the-history-of-metal-bows/
DQ:
Those arrows may be Popin Jay blunts. Made for a game of shooting a live bird tethered to the top of a pole.
hammerstone:
Somewhere around here i have a similar arrow that was made in Germany , at least it has German writing on it
medicinewheel:
Careful with shooting this bow! - From all I know these old tubular steelbows have a tendency to explode without any signe of warning when drawn due to corrosion on the inside!
I once met someone with a personal experience. Not nice at all...
