 Well worth the $ November 17, 2009

I ended up buying this product because of the reviews posted here. So I thought I would help the next person choose since I got such a good deal. This product was shipped about as fast as anything could be.
I am very impressed and pleased with this bow. It is lightweight and does everything it should for the price. One thing I was leery of was the review that talked about how hard this bow was to string. Well, I don't know if I am gifted or not at stringing bows, but I soon had the string on with virtually no problem at all. A 10 year-old child could do it the way I did, providing he does more with the muscles on his arms than play pc games. It is just a matter of knowing how to do it. Here is what you do:
After you have it all clamped together, put your left foot in stirrup (or whatever that thing is called) and take a piece of firewood, 5 or 6" high and lay the left side of the bow on this. Put the string on the right side of the bow. With your right hand pull up on the right side of the bow to bend it back. You will take note at this point of the simple leverage that is going on. Place the other end of the string on the left side. And relax. That's all there is to it.
I was also pleased to get a scope and the laser thrown in for this price. I had no trouble at all mounting them. The arrows included are just to get you started. I used a bail of straw and a cardboard target for sighting in at 20 yards. These small 16" cheap arrows are not the best thing to use if you want to see the real accuracy of this thing. 20 yards were the max.
This is a great starter crossbow, but for anyone serious about hunting big game, unless you were 10 yards from the game and knew you could get a clean shot to the lungs or heart, I wouldn't use it. You really need a compound bow for the bigger stuff, IMO.
I have not tried this bow with better arrows. Either way, it is no toy and is a serious weapon.
To save your cheapy arrows, use a little Gorilla glue on the joints and even on the feathers. Makes them last a lot longer. Same thing with the string. After several shots you will see the ends of the string and where the shaft sits start to unravel. Tighten the wrapped outer string back like it was and apply a little Gorilla glue. You will be amazed how much longer they last. And I use a bar of old soap to keep the beam and string well slicked. Works great.
The only other thing I would recommend is that after you shoot is several times, re-tighten all the screws and bolts.
Also, don't expect bulls-eye accuracy. This is a bow and arrow, not a rifle.
Hope this helps.
ps. The cheapy red arrows are the same as the more expensive ones, as noted by someone else.

First pulled it out of the box disassembled, the individual parts feel sturdy. The instructions on the box are a tad iffy but they are easy enough to follow. Its very difficult to put the string onto the bow, for us it took a 250lb guy to hold down the crossbow doing it the way the directions said.
For operation you pull the string up and it puts it on safety and clicks into place. when you notch a bolt a little tab holds it in place do it wont fall off as your firing. The iron sights are set all the way up so they require tuning. Once tuned the bolt hit very consistently. We were hitting about 2" away from the other bolts at 100 ft. The fore-grip is adjustable front to back also.
The major complaint I have is that its a pain in the rear to get the iron sights off in order to attach the scope and laser. After that the scope goes on easy, the laser then attaches to the scope. The laser is a high end rifle laser, its adjustable in wind-age and elevation and has a on-off switch rather than a pressure button. The scope is a bit light weight and feels cheap yet sturdy, it only magnify about 1.5x non adjustable zoom, it is also adjustable in wind-age and elevation and comes with lens caps.
We had to use about 8" of solid cardboard for a target otherwise it goes through and if it hits anything hard it breaks the bolt.
Good crossbow for the money! October 9, 2009

I was pleased with the product,its quality, and the speed of delivery.the only drawback is the laser is aftermarket(the mount is for a rifle),and the scope is not an over/under, making you choose between iron sights and the scope,as opposed to being able to use either.I use this to hunt, and the bolts are a little too short to mount broadhead hunting tips,but overall this is a great crossbow,and puts food on the table.

Fast Service! Love the crossbow! February 26, 2010

OK, got this REALLY fast from Last Punch.
When you order stuff online, you never know.
But I'm really happy with the Crossbow.
Yes, the removal of the adjustment post to put the scope on was a pain, but done.
The laser was almost spot on when I turned it on and looked through the scope.
The Crossbow is a Taiwanese product, but nice. Not junk, not at all.
My plan is to use it as a bowfishing rig for the Grandkids, and also for target practice.
Grandma showed it to the Grandson today and he was really excited about it! Unfortunately he had to leave before I got home.
We bowfish from our pontoon boat.
OK, off to shop Amazon for the reel and fishing arrow to use with it.
