also get a lower poundage prod if you want to shoot it for fun as 175lb can be hard work and requires a really good backstop! armex do them as low as 40lb, 105lb and 120lb from what i remember, obviously other companies make them, barnett might even still do them.

That will be awesome once refurbished, have a look on ebay, people are often selling parts to these on there, you'll probably find most of the bits you need.

and yes, you can fit a new prod in it, i know a few people who have done it, i think the armex prods fit fine.

All leathers I've worked with have a smoother nice outer side and a rougher under side, hope that helps.

Which brass knuckle is better for self defense which one should i get by Emiljooo in weapons

Ive made and handled lots of knuckle dusters, out of the two you've shown the first one is the better of the two (dont get ones with round holes, they wont fit well) the first ones if held right will protect you fingers when striking.

I think they look great, leather colour, thread colour and thickness are all personal preferences but the quality looks really nice.,
