It has passed three different marshals in two different kingdoms. Sorry I dont have pictures to provide at this time. I'll let it go for $50 plus shipping. It has a period firing mechanism pull bar and a foot rung in the front. And its very light for holding for period of time. Sorry, dont have any ammo/bolts for it. Contact me a farspeaker90@hotmail.com for further.

Not to hijack this thread, but I thought I might provide a little advice on the shipping part.

The best way that I have found to ship a crossbow is via USPS - the post office.

BUT

You absolutely need to keep the length+girth of the package under 107" total. You determine this measurement by looping a sewing tape around the package in its two shorter dimensions, and then adding the length of the longer dimension.

My most common way of getting a box for this purpose is to go to a bike shop and ask for a carton that new bikes come in. You typically have to shorten the box to get it to fit within the required dimensions, but there is usually enough room left to fit the crossbow into.

By keeping it under 107", you get to ship it for a lower rate. Anything above that will incur the dreaded Cargo Rate, doubling or even tripling the shipping costs. At the lower rate, you can send it via priority mail for $15-$25 in postal charges.

I want the crossbow if it hasn't sold yet. But only if it shoots fiberglass arrows and not golftube/siloflex bolts.
Let me know at:

If it hasn't sold yet I'would like to purchase it,regardless of the type of ammo it uses.
