if you would want an Excalibur...not that the one already mentioned isnt a good price, i think most would much rather have new with a warranty then a used bow any day.

The only down side to the bow posted is it's carved limb tips vs molded, which means it can only use dacron strings, which means it shoots about the same fps as a Phoenix. there are several people that have dry-fired Excals and split a limb, myself included that got them replaced for free under warranty by being honest. Try that w/ a compound.

Here's a little factoid for ya, Excals have virtually a life time warranty for anything but stupidity. Guys are getting 20 yr old bows warranteed when needed.

who said anything about a compound?
i was just trying to give the guy a heads up to a great deal on a new crossbow, wasn't trying to cut anyones throat on another deal or anything' just trying to give the gentleman another option to explore before making up his mind.

I did not intend for this to be so heated. I was just looking for a bow. I dont think that anyone was trying p/o anybody or cut anyones throats. I will justgo toBass Pro for a new one!!!!!!!

RE: Looking For a Used Crossbow
This type of post happens alot, so no one will be upset. awshucks was referring to regular compound bows being dry fired and breaking limbs. Most of the time an Excal won't have any damage. Then again he my have been thinking of CB compounds!
