Mr Wilkes 3,067 Posted September 9, 2021 Report Share Posted September 9, 2021 Got sent this screenshot from a lad. Not a bad price, it did however come with its original box. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
andysparks 109 Posted September 9, 2021 Report Share Posted September 9, 2021 Bloody hell! They're not even a great frame to shoot...in my opinion obviously. Someone must be mad to pay that! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mr Wilkes 3,067 Posted September 9, 2021 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2021 I obviously shot one as a kid but can’t remember how good I was with it. I do sometimes get the urge to shoot another milbro but not at that price.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Expand Think it was the bands that were the problem not the fork, have fitted them with flats and modern tube and they work fine mate, you can still get them cheap without the box and split plugs which you wouldn’t want anyways if your planning on using it rather than collecting it 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ger2020 66 Posted September 14, 2021 Report Share Posted September 14, 2021 theres some modern ally repro milbros on ebay for under 15 quid now. ive even seen a couple try bieng passed off as vintage recently. i got one of the repros it was a fun catty and quite nice but far too narrow forks for me to be consistent.

tatsblisters 10,453 Posted September 14, 2021 Report Share Posted September 14, 2021 I have one of them goliath catapults i think they call them and remember buying my first millbro about 71 they are not a patch on the modern frames and elastic imho. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
j j m 6,565 Posted October 2, 2021 Report Share Posted October 2, 2021 i had one as a kid id not pay that price for one now Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tatsblisters 10,453 Posted October 2, 2021 Report Share Posted October 2, 2021 I reckon with the range of catapults these days and some of the hand made catapults wich some are nothing short of works of Art imo there will be avid collectors these days of catapults and the original millbro must be a price worth paying for some collectors.
