Arrow Cupid's Bow

[Effigey]

I wasn't sure the proper place to I guess place this. However after watching the most recent Arrow episode I fell in love (pun somewhat intended) with Cupid. I'd love to add a replica of her bow to my collection. Though I need someone far smarter then me to tell me if they recognize what the base bow she uses is. Granted I'm sure it's been modified in some way or another but so far all the bows used have had some real world counterpart and I would assume this bow is no different.

It's a type of bow called a horse bow. It looks to be off the shelf with a coat of paint, I can't see any mods. There is a decent view of it about 14 minutes into ep.7. I had a quick look around but I couldn't find the exact model.

You can pick them up fairly cheap on ebay. The key points you have to look at are the angle that the limbs project from the handle at and the forward angle of the siyahs (the rigid levers on the ends of the limbs). Hope that helps.

You could also order a custom replica of this bow from http://www.pvcperfection.com/ . His bows are made of PCV tubing, but just as functional as any off-the -shelf bow, but a much lower price. And you can request the handle wrap and paint colors.
