If you know what you’re doing, however, and don’t mind using a recurve crossbow, it’s a best recurve crossbow for the money with a lot of power. Overall, it’s a good weapon but not suited for everyone as it has some conflicting design choices. If it wasn’t for this, it would be a great beginner crossbow for sure. One of the major drawbacks of this crossbow is its lack of some common safety features, namely the anti-dryfire mechanism.ĭon’t hand it over to beginners and be careful when using it, if you opt to get it anyway. This is common in recurve crossbows, but I thought I’d give you a heads up since it’s even more pronounced in this model. However, it’s not too difficult to assemble it and what you get a is a powerful crossbow that weighs only around 5.5 pounds.īe careful in tight spaces, though, since it’s extremely wide from one axle to the other. It even comes in parts, and you need to assemble it before use, which can be a hassle. It’s a real do-it-yourself kind of crossbow, for sure. It’s a lifetime warranty but only for manufacturing defects. Overall, they have a good warranty on their products. Since it has far less moving parts than a compound crossbow, it doesn’t need to be taken to a service every time something goes wrong. One of the major benefits it has as a recurve crossbow, though, is the ease of maintenance. The more impressive thing is the draw weight of 200 – beware, it’s at the extreme limits of the law, and you won’t be able to use this crossbow in most states. Its speed of 305 is lower than most of the other crossbows I’ve featured thus far, but it’s still nothing to scoff at. You don’t need to have a bow press like with a compound crossbow and even if the string breaks it’s no big deal. It’s easy to string as well, requiring no external device – you can do it by yourself.
Since this is a relatively inexpensive crossbow, it’s a good entry-level crossbow that can be used by almost anyone. It’s made in the USA, so you know it’s not made out of cheap parts or shoddily assembled – it features titanium fasteners that ensure it will stay in one piece for a long time. The price point is high to be sure, but this is a quality product that comes with a lot of extras and performs better than most others. Even beginners should be able to handle without any risk of injury which is always what you want. The safety is top-notch, with an anti-dry fire device on board and the New Kempf Tech Sear Lock Trigger System. Just carrying it can be a bit of a chore, but if you want all that speed and power it might be worth it – you decide. You might have trouble with it when trying to hunt deer on tree stands or in thick woods. It’s quite a wide crossbow, at 12 7/8 inches. You’ll easily be able to sling it around your shoulder with that attachment. This would reduce its hefty weight of 7.5 pounds as well if you’re worried about that. This crossbow is also available with Hogue custom 1911 style pistol grips, allowing you to choose your preferred style of hunting.
