It’s the silent killer.

I would and DO have one in my stock pile.

They have come along way baby!

Years ago, Stallone used one in a “Rambo” movie to shoot VC out of guard towers in a prison camp, during a POW rescue. The last anything with an arrow I shot was a simple bow, in Scout camp, back in the late-50s.

Reload time is much slower than a handgun. I guess the “ammo” be reusable is a big plus though.

“Silent killer”? I just use my hands.

Pull a Kung Fu Rambo. I’ve been watching Kung Fu on DVD - learning the moves.

So do I. I got one for hunting if my other weapons can't be used. (Too loud, out of ammo, whatever)

But then, I even have a compound bow, pellet gun and a slingshot. My primary weapons are considerably more powerful.

I agree. If one uses a gun or rifle for hunting, that will draw attention
with the sound. Short range, silent and deadly not a bad trade off, for
hunting.

I have one, but I can’t draw it anymore since my shoulder went out. I keep thinking I should look for one that has a crank you can draw it with. They are nice and quiet for hunting with.
