Sam,
While I have hunted and competed with the rifle for 60 years the crossbow is new to me and Fun!
I have had a longbow for a long time but never put my heart into it.
I bought this crossbow on a lark when they went on sale. I got the whole kit for a couple of hundred.
It's more fun that two new guns.
It came with a scope and arrows. I also bought a block and pulley device to cock it (pull the string back). I also bought a target so I can shoot it in the basement! It's a block of what must be styrofoam with targets on it.
