Thanks, Pran. I am aware about these bows.
btw, does anyone have hands on experience with crossbows?How accurate are they at 10-15 mts?
Very accurate. Robin Hoods (one arrow into the back of another) aren't rare. And this was with the more run of the mill Barnett x-bows.

Have you seen them? The crossbow looks tempting :)

Guess that's why William Tell used one to shoot the apple on his son's head :wink:

Hi Jonah,

If I am not mistaken, he wanted 30 odd thousand for it.

I think he also mentioned that he would only sell it to me. However, if you are interested, I could ask him again - for a firm price and availability.
