Scott.'s Review of Chinese 50 lb Draw Pistol Crossbow

Overall Rating

3.5 stars

Good Points

Lots of fun if you always wanted to shoot one as a toy. Very inexpensive $7-$15 dollars.
Possibly dangerous as they are way more powerful than just a toy. Requires pliers to remove arrow from a tree shot at close range.


Bad Points

The plastic tips on the bow ends break after about 200 shots. fortunately they and the replacemnt string only costs about four bucks to replace.


General Comments

A lot of fun to shoot this little pistol and actually could be very deadly to squirrels and pigeons etc out to about 20 feet... limited by accuracy and not enough power however.
Well worth the money although all the guys that have spent big bucks on high power deer hunting crossbows will regard it as pure junk.

It is cheap enough to be a gag gift for dads and nephews etc. but secretly they will really have a lot of fun with it. Do not shoot indoors thinking this is a toy however.

    Hi there.

    I was just wondering, what sort of range can you expect from this crossbow pistol? I mean, if you shot it flat, would it go 30m, for example?

    Thanks,

    James
