A friend is looking for about 100 long bows for some figures he has. Can anyone suggest a source for buying 100 loose bows? Scratch building is NOT an option. |

This could run into some expense @GBP 2.50/8 but they are loose longbows: link |

You could just use some bent pieces of cut wire. |

Found a 3D print option at roughly $20 USD! |

Gripping Beast do bows, but maybe not quite long enough.
There are some spares in the Perry Late Medieval Light Cavalry box.
Apologies, just read the post properly… That would be a lot of boxes of light cavalry… but still maybe cheaper than 20 dollars a bow. |

Toothpicks? Bet you could warp ‘em with a bit of hot water, add thread, and voila! Instant Robin Hood! |

I would consider Perry Wars of the Roses/100 Years war figures.
Chop the bow off at the figures wrist and stick onto the relevant figure. |

Essex Miniatures do separate weapons including longbows. |
