And at a not unreasonable price, too!

Do they allow you to specify a pin and top weight range and do they meet those specs???? (thanx)

I have delt with them before and if you give certain spec's they do try and match what you want. One time They called me back to let me know that they didn't have what I requested and gave me a rundown on what they did have in that particular ball.

i saw that a couple of days ago, i remember chris barnes using one, and looked pitiful in doing so, maybe this ball will show up on ebay sometime soon...

offseason prices on ebay are great.

Yes you can request pin/TW from them.

Just remember that by the time bowlingball.com lists closeout equipment on eBay you're not going to have a lot of success finding specs close to what you'd like.

and we should care,  this was not exactly a blockbuster when it was out about a zillion bowling ball years ago,
was not a yellow dot or an lt-48

Sweet!  I was going to grab a Raven Quantum and I still might.  Agreed on the Forest Green.  I would get one of those no problem.

I think it's cool that they brought these back out.

Funny how they state this in all of their Quantum ball descriptions:
"ARGUABLY ONE OF THE BEST BALLS EVER MADE!!"

I have to be honest, I had a Fire Quantum remake and didn't see anything special about it.  In fact, my strike % went down a little whenever I used it.  Everyone says it hits like a tank, but mine didn't.  Oh well.

Bowlingball.com remaking the Navy Quantum makes me wonder why they haven't ordered a remake of the Original Inferno...

From what I have heard, they just need to order 500 balls and Brunswick will make whatever they want. I would have to imagine that they could EASILY sell out of 500 OI's in a matter of weeks.

Perhaps Brunswick won't allow this yet, seeing as how it just recently went out of production?

Yeah I would say they want you to collect all four of their current Infernos for a while.
