Exocet 200 with scope,quiver,4 bolts,2 strings,and a hard case (looks like an aluminum rifle case that requires taking the limbs off)all for $400.00 + shipping.
Used bow,but looks to be in fine condition.

While this wasn't my first choice as a first crossbow I did handle the new ones,and they certainly where not offensive!
A recurve might be a bit simpler as a first crossbow also !

That does sound like a good price. You could get your money back if you didn't like it, I'm sure.

Just hoping it stays available for a few days until I pry another 15 bucks out of my wife!

The trigger is good on mine, I understand it can be better. A fellow on here who goes by boo can slick it up even more. I am planning to send mine to him now that hunting season is done.

Yeah i missed it. Have a few fishing items listed that need to sell so I can spend a bit more ! When they sell I will be in a better position to buy my first sideways bow !

Too bad you missed that deal, seldom see them go fer that price. Every now & again someone will need to sell quickly & you can pick up a deal

Gives you a chance now to "shop" for the perfect crossbow for you! Shoot everything you can get your hands on. Read some reviews & make the decision that is right for YOU! Good luck & enjoy the process!
