I like Van Helsing's crossbow.............
To anyone that complains about using a crossbow because it’s not “real” hunting, I show them a rifle. If you also use this, then shut up.
Bow hunting in general is great. So is gun hunting. It’s all great.
I’ve met countless hunters young and old who can’t use a compound bow anymore because it blew out their shoulder.
I just want something that will drop a racoon on the top of my garbage cans without waking the neighbors. Is there something that isnt a toy out there for 3-400?
“On the plus side, you don’t need a silencer. “
Shhh! Before you know it we will be required to put “Loudeners” on them.
How well do the work on antifa from outside their lawless zones? Maybe just to burn some tents down
Ludicrous. There is no “line”. If someone wants to own and hunt with these gizmos...more power to them.
You could probably hook up a combination of a motion sensor and parts from a microwave oven. Just be sure to turn it off when you take the trash out. Search on “magnetron gun”.
I have an excaliber recurve crossbow. Thing is accurate, but not as quiet as you think. This is cool though.....
Crossbow
feeding ones family shall not be infringed.
sporting for trophies, set your parameters.
i am liking the double barrel bolt for home defense... won’t wake the neighbors.
Crossbow technology is draconian and racist. /s
Watch the sales. You can get a good entry level crossbow capable of dropping a deer for under $300. Be careful of state laws. Places like NY have regulations about limb with, lbs of draw and lengths. They are not always in the published specs like limb length. Most will measure axle to axle but NY goes limb tip to limb tip.
As with all governments trying to regulate weapons, they are clueless. For example, to hunt in NY the draw has to be between 100lb and 200lb. It was intended to limit the power. You can actually buy a crossbow that has a 180lb draw that is more powerful than one with a 205lb draw. The cams are the key.
Can it take out a police helicopter?
A good pump pellet gun will do it. I have one for rabbits that is quite effective and doesn’t wake neighbors.
