    I had someone give me a riser for a compound bow. It's the riser, with the mounting bolts and washers. It also has a PSE sight attached, and a quiver.

    The entire saet-up looks like it was camo'd in "Real-Tree", and itappears to be a factory paint job.

    Problem is, I have no limbs, and there is not one single mark on the aluminum riser.

    How would I find out the maker of the riser, and the draw weight?

    Honestly, your better off just forgetting about it... If it CAN be identified, and parts located. You will be into well over what is worth...

    Or try selling it on ebay or archerytalk.com.

    if the limb pad angles are right, it could be used to make a "warf". which is a reconstituted compound riser adapted to take ILF (international limb fitting) recurve and longbow limbs. Heres on I made from an old PSE silverhawk compound.
