Functional Crossbow up for sale

Post by falcoperegrinus »

I need to get rid of my crossbow so i am offering it for sale. Needs a little cleaning but for most part has never been used. Very powerful, not a toy. It came with one bolt which i do have somewhere and will include. Just make me an offer on it. Think i paid close to $300 originally - really don't remember where i got it from since it was a while back. Paypal or money order only. Will consider a good magyar, late roman or scythian bow for trade.

I know someone who might be interested. Should see them on Tuesday at the latest.

Looks like a couple of Depeeka crossbows I have seen. It would be the middle sized one. Some kind of dark wood that looks like walnut. Forged prod that can really vary in draw weight and consistencey. Nut and the bolt track is horn. Have a friend who has one but I don't remember what he paid for it. He has a archery shop so he got it a dealeer prices. It is the first time I have seen one with brass work.

Don't remember where i got it online, it was quite awhile ago. It wouldn't surprise me if it was Depeeka. I can't remember the draw but i thinks it up around 200. Like i said it was awhile ago. I did finally find the one bolt that came with while cleaning out some stuff. If you need a pic of it let me know.

Looks very similar to this one:

The one I got is pretty darn good.
I would have bought it just for the parts.
The prod and the langets and the bow string are all high quality.
I am not really happy with how they put the barrel nut in, but that is easily remedied. And the draw weight is fierce!
I don't know what it is, but I say around 150-200 lbs.
The two "bolts" they send with it suck, but the heads are nice and you can always fit them to a real bolt.
