Rifleboy,
the guys are leading you true. I have one of the ones you are talking about and as they said it si pretty much a toy. this question gets asked all the time in here and these guys are are about hunting with serious crossbows. It si pretty much illegal in all states as they have poundage limits on the bows taht are used. Those things are fun though. can you hit with it? I am not worth a crap with mine....
