I accidentally dry-fired a Browning Mag Reflex Bow and a piece holding the strings together below the top cam broke off. There's one on the bottom too, I've been told it's called a torque equalizer. This bow is old, so does anyone know where I can get this part?

It's been checked by several places who don't ahve the part. I've been to Basspro, local gun and bow shops, etc. It was only dry fired from about halfway, and the pull is only 50 lbs, I was letting it down when it slipped. All shops said it would be an easy 15 minute, low price fix if I could find anywhere with that part.

I contacted Browning, they said they don't have any of the parts, so instead I can find an older bow shop that has older parts I'm outta luck.

Hendu2875 has probably got the right idea, you will most likely have to contact Browning. Also, as Barry M makes a good point, have your limbs inspected. Don't go to a sports super store as most employees know less about bows than the average bow hunter. I go to a little shop in a small town (bass pro), the older man there knows his stuff. I shoot a Browning Rage with a Hypermax 10 cam. I love my Browning. Good luck and happy hunting.

I am sorry to hear that, it sounds like you are at the mercy of pure luck. You may want to look for a new bow. It will be an up-grade from any older bow. Everything is lighter, faster,and have higher let off%'s. My bow only weighs 4 lbs.

As others stated, attempt vacationing a actual archery keep. although, compounds frequently fee so plenty greater beneficial than that. The bow itself can fee that plenty, then you certainly could upload on attractions, rests, launch, stabilizer, arrows, etc. pass to a keep to get an theory of what it expenses. 20-30 pound is high quality for starter. greater clever to be too easy than in basic terms a sprint too heavy. Get some thing which you will shoot often without plenty fatigue. That poundage is sturdy for capturing indoors as much as 40 yards. Heck i've got shot a 30 pound recurve with aluminum arrows exterior at 70m and replaced into doing nicely. i know somebody who shot a 22pound recurve out to a hundred yards. So do no longer concern approximately that weight, a slow 10 is greater clever than a quickly pass over.

Go to a bow pro shop. The limbs will need to be inspected. Buying the replacement part will be a waste of money if the limbs are not safe for use. Seek professional help, don't let your buddies tell you it's ok, you will be the one suffering if they snap on you.

Contact browning and explain to them what happened.. Actually dont tell them you dry fired it.. Just tell them that when yo fired the shot, it blew up and would like it replace. FREE OF CHARGE.

They'll most likely send you a new part..

Or check our their website.

If there is a gander mountain around, go there. They should have the part and have a repair shop in the store.
