Default Old Check-mate

Well, I found an old Check-mate target recurve on E-Bay. It's a metal riser take down. It has 2 markings that are a bit confussing. It states two different lengths and draw weights. 34# @ 28-68" and 36# @ 28" - 66". It has a different style of attaching the the limbs. It may be that it has an adjustable length? It's a dovetail in a keyway. It looks to have been is great shape till the seller sent it. (Unpacked via FedEx ground from Reno Nevada) It has a chip in the handle that I will try and retouch. Chad, can you find out what type of paint Check-Mate used? This one has a silver flake/ green. If anyone has any information on the bow as far as set up and sdjusting the length, please let me know. It should make a great bow for my Daughter. Dick
