Default RE: Barnett's new crossbow

ORIGINAL: coyote170

There have been quite a few who have or had Barnetts and enjoy or have
had good experinces with the bow.The two I had had a lot of arrows
shot thru them with no problems,my only problem was the trigger pull
which was awful.My local gun smith solved it and made it a pleasure to
shoot.One of the fellows in my hunting is shooting one of my old Barnetts
and is very happy with it,another has the new Reveloution and is happy
with it,of all the people that bash them how many have owned and only can remember two on this site who has had major problems with them.
I guess its to each his own and maybe they shoot what they can afford.
I have heard of problems with other xbows one of my Parkers included
but maybe Barnett has worked on their problems and are on the road
to putting a better product out for the public,as I said to each his own.

I've been seeing the commercial's for the new barnett's that have the quick detatch thingy on the limbs. I dont like the looks of it. Taking off the limbs has to change your POI somewhat, and also. what if that jig doesnt hold back your limbs? I just have this immage of someone shooting at a deer, the arrow being quickly followed by the whole entire front of the bow!

anyone else think this isnt the best lookin rig out there?
I wasnt really bashing them,I was more or less just pointing out the things I didnt like about the looks of the design and what i could see possibly happening. That's all
