One handsome crossbow.
If you're anything like me, you can't stand all this "tacticool" sh*t, and would take a wood-stock rifle any day of the week. This crossbow is no exception, and is a gorgeous, classic looking crossbow in a sea of skeletal synthetic compound bows and crossbows.

Nice crossbow
I really like it, but I had to get 20” carbon bolts for it because the bolts that came with it made it inaccurate- meaning it shot about 12” above the target due to the fact that they are a lot shorter.

A very nice crossbow for the price.
I wanted to buy a crossbow just for shooting targets and this crossbow is perfect for it. The only complaint I have is that it came with fairly useless instructions, other than that the bow itself is just great.

A really great Crossbow.
I just put this bow together and i was very impressed with it. I love the wood stock on it ,and it makes the bow have class.I love to find new and different weapons to add to my arsenal (of wonderful toys),i just find this crossbow great. Iv'e shot it about five times and it has alot of power. I will let you know my findings on it,at a later time. For the price,this is a good crossbow. Ronn ''Manchu''Shaw.

nice product
This is a lot of crossbow for the price, but make sure you use carbon arrows because this thing is way too powerful for the aluminum ones it comes with. Helpful hints: you need a stringer cable to string the bow.. I made one out of paracord, but it would be better to buy one. put electrical tape at the end of the limbs where the the string caps go, then put the caps over the taped portion, this will make them last longer. Then, twist the string four complete rotations to tighten up the strands, then wax it with bow wax or snowboard wax. I find the blue ski wax rated for colder temps to be best. Once the string is waxed up and twisted it should be rock solid. Get it strung, then take steel wool and polish the flight rail, mine had a few rough spots and the steel wool buffed it down to a smooth finish. Then take your wax and wax the flight rail (where the arrow sits) I would buff the inner rail as well so you dont hurt the arrow fletching. I was amazed at how well ski wax stayed on the rail without leaving residue. My string has lasted well over 100 shots and is still going strong with this method. Also, remove the front and rear sights and get a scope or a red dot on there. The receiver has an integrated dovetail (not weaver) mount so you can use dovetail rings or buy a dovetail to picatinny adapter. The sights on mine did not hold zero but i was planning on removing them anyway. This thing has tons of power and can be cocked by hand if you have a strong back and tactical gloves. Using my set up technique I am now hitting a tight group and have actually hit one arrow with another, shredding the nock. An Amazing item at this price point and capable of taking most game in America, large or small.

Purchased two
Got one for my son-in-law and one for me. Lots of fun! You need to be a gorilla to get it strung, but after that the fun begins! Good quality, attractive wood. Can't go wrong buying this.

Pretty Good Deal 3.5 STARS
I RECEIVED MY CROSSBOW AND IMMEDIATELY STARTED TO PUT IT TOGETHER. THE BOW WAS VERY HARD TO STRING AND i HAD TO GO TO AN ARCHERY SHOP AND PAY TO HAVE IT DONE.
ALSO WHILE ASSEMBLING THE BOW, THE REAR SIGHT FELL APART. I WAS FORTUNATE TO HAVE A SPARE SIGHT IN MY PARTS BOX SO WAS ABLE TO REPLACE THE PART AND GET ON WITH SHOOTING.
USING A ROPE COCKER, GOT THE BOW COCKED AND FIRED THE BOLT AT THE TARGET. THE BOLT WENT THROUGH AN ARCHERY BALE TARGET AND INTO A PIECE OF PLYWOOD BACKING.
i SHOULD HAVE NO PROBLEM USING THIS BOW TO TAKE A DEER THIS YEAR IF I DO MY PART
BECAUSE IT DID NOT COME WITH MORE DETAILED INSTRUCTIONS AND THE PROBLEM WITH THE REAR SIGHT I GIVE THIS 3.5STARS

Perfect for beginners and amateurs
My father taught me at 5 yrs old to use a bow and arrow
Before a gun. I did the same
For my daughters. I was injured in Iraq and I can only use a crossbow. My 17 yr old wanted a crossbow, so I got her this one, she loved it and perfected it enough that she asked to hunt opening day of bow season with it. She shot a 130lb doe 30 mins after getting on stand. 35' shot quartering away, lung/heart shot. Awesome for the price.
The accuracy is similarly as close to my Ten Point.

That one star review is hilarious. Did Nate think it was a boomerang?

caution have apropriate backstop
if you buy this crossbow be sure to get a large piece of plywood because if you miss you will never find the bolt again.
