BARNETT INTERNATIONAL
 
Talked to a nice young lady at Barnett today.she said they were not going out of business by any means.they are just remodeling and revamping the shops. she said they will be up and running full tilt in about two weeks.
Bigger and better than ever.

Hey Lee, you might have mentioned it before, but what model do you have?

Thanks for the update, my revolution xs pulled the left cam out of the limb after about 25 shots. It was cocked when this happened sounded like ice cracking under your feet kinda smashed my thumb.
I called them about it and they gave me an RA # but when it got there they refused it and sent it back still broke, thats when I got the phone recording about restructering or something like that. I would like to shoot it if I can ever get it fixed

"I called them about it and they gave me an RA # but when it got there they refused it and sent it back still broke...."

Sounds like Barnett really does not want to do business in the US. i have two Barnett bows and need to buy extra cables for my Revolution XS. Am still bent out of shape at Barnett over the condition of my Quad 400 when i bought it in 2004.The scope went to heck after about two months. The flipper that holds the string cocked was mounted backwards, the bow "package" had three bolts of different weights, ad nauseum, ad nauseum.

Oh well, i can always shoot both bows to death, junk them and then buy an Excal.

OK folks y'all are certainly having troubles with yer Barnetts CB's! Do you think these problems will just go away once they get restructshured! I think not, the same workers will be there doing the same who gives a s*** goof off! I would get them fixed if i could and sell them to people i didn't know, so there wouldn't be bad feeling amoung friends!

Well the good news is there are several other good to great CB makers out there. Speed isn't the only thing in hunting, a CB that performs day in and day out with same fine performance at 280 fps is way better. Some shoot 300 fps some 330.

Tell you what I noticed that the pro fusion I bought for my wife has bolts and nuts at the end of the limbs to keep them togather, I had a C5 wildcat I bought for my sonbut after the XS experence I took it back and got a compound bow for him.
Funny thing is I relly liked the XS it would sling them arrows fast

"Funny thing is I relly liked the XS it would sling them arrows fast."

Yes, it does. Mine is also very accurate. But without parts support it ismore useless than a rock.

I have a revolution there that was getting fixed and have not heard back. All the phone numbers are a fast busy signal and Cabelas and Bass pro online have stopped selling their xbows. Any thoughts?

Hmmmm no good ones thats for sure! Good luck hawaii. Keep bugging everyone. Did you send it in yourself or did a bow shop send it?

Sorry to hear the stories of bows sent back not repaired or in limbo inside the plant. Bnett has had quality problems for a long time and it looks like it finally caught up to them. They must have sold a ton of them over the years, as you can tell from some guys posts that they have never had any trouble w/ theirs and don't seem to believe all the problems others have had. I like the Excaliburs, you don't even get or need a warranty card w/ a new one. They have been standing by their products for well over 20 years, even stuff that's several years old or discontinued models.

Dan, I'm sure you've read some of the stories in the Excal forum. Some of the "warranty" repairs are bordering on rediculous. Donno how Excal justifies it other than good will but they warrant things that just shouldn't be warranted. Dryfires on older bows comes to mind and thats a good thing for myself and David! LOL!:D
