barnett crossbows are just like cva muzzleloaders,there are twice as many of them out there so you will see more with problems. i've owned both without any major problems.

I have had both,the Barnett was a nightmare,but the CVA
has been a super good gun,love my old black powder baby!

Yup, there is a few semi-decent Barnett crossbows but...............for every Barnett that doesn't break, blow apart, or fail to work there are thousands that do.

i'm fairly new to crossbows but i purchased a Barnett quad AVI and it was real inaccurate so they took it in and put a new limb assembly on the front and it will shoot a 2 1/2" group at 45 yards every time--i like it--i also think when people pay around a thousand dollars for a unit they dont complain as loud:hail:

The only person I would complain to would be the dealer I bought it from,but then my brand doesnt seem to have the
problems that Barnett does,so I feel it was worth a little
more to get the quality I wanted.

Barnettxbows: I have a couple of questions. Why do Barnett crossbows break, fall apart, self destruct, etc, etc? Why do they have only a 1 year limited warranty? Why do the "new and improved" models continue to break risers and have other problems after supposedly being "re-engineered?
Last question; Why does Barnett continue to make and sell such junk?

Looking for a reply from DaGriz;
Saw a posting from you about Barnett Predator xbow exploding and have friend possibly seeking legal action. I would like to contact friend I"m also seeking legal action.
