Carbon Express bolts need the nocks (half moon) lined up outta the box, the quality you get from korea.Had a semi dry fire cause I got lazy

Same here....I hate having to buy sub-standard gear...

I've been buying Carbon Express for 2 years now and never a problem. I always inspect my arrows before they are fired. Guess somebody was slacking on the job that batch!

It was my fault for not looking and being safe. Like you said I've never had a problem with cx nocks being lined up...but it only took one to put my bow that I waited 10 yrs for to be outta commission for 3 weeks. No problem with Parker cs just a super slow bow shop. Good luck with your hunts

Check your Horton's as well.

True story, happened just last Friday.

I have been a vert bow hunter since 1979, bought a Xbow 2 weeks ago, read the manual, watched the videos, surfed the net and felt pretty well boned up on xbows, 1st cock, 1st arrow (Horton)out of the box, loaded cock feather down, no brainer right? NOT! something just seemed wrong, checked it a few times and was convinced something was not right, yep knock was not indexed to the cock feather. I understand Parker's position on using Parker arrows, and Parker knocks.

Lucky for you no semi dry fire.

The capture nocks are the best for the novice as well as the seasoned hunter. You can't get lazy or forgetful when loading your arrows. Load the arrow and give a little twist back and forth to make sure your arrow has engaged the string.

Parker is the only mfg?
