    My first/only crossbow is an Excalibur Equinox

    Went with a simple recurve for maintenance/reliability reasons.
    Love it!

    Heard this one works well on Zombies! It's a Horton

    Yes that crossbow is the Horton scout HD125 goes for around $350.

    Check out the new Barnett zombie 350. That's the one I've been eyeing! It's a $550-600 crossbow but I did come across a site that has them for $200 a piece but you have to buy five for a minimum order. Anyone want to go in on a group buy? I'd be all over one for $200.

    Here is the deal I'm talking about:

    Here is the regular price:

    Very cool! If anyone else is interested speak up! I'll set up the group buy down in the proper section and even make the initial purchase. Could either mail out to individuals priority insured but could also meet up with people on the I-25 corridor between Loveland and Castle Rock since I'm down there frequently anyway. Chime in if you want one.

    Well hell just did some digging on the company and it sounds like they are overseas. Does not look to promising. Should have known it sounded too good to be true. Check these company reviews out:

    Think i'm going to have to look into this more first.
