Default Crossbow help

Hi, i was looking arownd craigslists today i seen a ad for a Saxon avengerII crossbow, but i can't find any info on it. Do any of you know if its any good?

I am looking at it for my dad, he has bad elbows so he can't use he's compond bow any more. All it needs is new strings put on it, how much would thatwould cost?

Thanks!

i ran a google ck and it doesn't pull up. i never heard of them sounds like junk. best to look around and find a quality CB. none are what i call cheap but decent priced they are. several good companys made good CB's some make great CB's.

I can't find who makes the Saxon crossbow website either but I did find a vendor who sells them. Go to auctionarms.com and type in crossbow. They should come up from some guy who goes by SkeeterBob. He is selling brand new Saxon II's for: $109.00, Saxon Turbow's: $149.00, and Saxon Mag-Fire's: $169.00. All are 150 lbs so the difference must be in the stock as he has no photo's of the crossbow on the site. But you can always email him to get the scoop. My guess is they are imports but from who or where?

Sounds like trouble countryboy but something for cheap always sounds good. Nothing personal but you would not even be able to tell if the bow had major problems like cracked limbs ect..
I have bought cheap crap before and what I got was cheap crap. Save your dimes!! It's a bucket laod of fun!
