I wouldn't get it, Or I wouldn't touch it with money. I would if I were you save your $$$ and buy a tenpoint. Wicked Ridge Warrior is about $490 with Arrows and a cocking aid depending where you go.

The company recently filed bankruptcy and is no longer. You will have NO SUPPORT or PARTS if problems develop.

Horton has folded. I cannot imagine where you might get any support for probelms with the X-Bow down the road. Folded because of poor sales probably due primarily to QA issues. If I recall correctly the folks at "Ten Point" have bought out Horton and plan to reintroduce a improved quality Horton product line some time early 2014.

Totally agree with the above. Would not touch it. Either get an Excalibur, Ten Point or Wicked Ridge made by Ten Point. The old saying of you get what you pay for most definitely applies to Xbows. Good luck.

Personally I would stay very far away from any Horton products right now until someone picks up the patents and rights to make new parts for them. $0.02
