EMIYA 36 Pistol Crossbow Arrows 50-80 Lb

I would have given it five stars except there were NO instructions for the crossbow. Since I bought a crossbow pistol some time ago assembly this crossbow rifle was easy, but I will list things you should know after my general comment.If you have never owned a crossbow and want to try one, this is a good choice. Hunting grade crossbows are $350 to $1,000+. This is a Target Grade Crossbow, but it is not a toy. Power is not specified, but I would guess it is at least an 80 pounder. It is very accurate at 10 yards and will sink darts into targets at 20 yards. If aimed high, the darts will travel much farther. The bow subassembly is already stung which is a blessing. The included 4X20mm Scope (which does come with instructions) is real plus.Getting Started: Right out of the box every screw, nut and bolt should be checked for snug fit. My guess is that most of the negative comments from others about early failures were because of loose fasteners. Also, after each shooting session, all should be rechecked. Tightening everything before attaching the bow subassembly and scope makes the tightening process much easier.Assembly: The heavy `U' shaped bar on the crossbow goes on the bottom of the crossbow `barrel' and the single cable on top. Before you attach it to the stock, tighten the two bold and nuts which hold the bow together. A screwdriver and a small adjustable wrench are required for all nuts and bolts. Then tighten the bolt and nut holding on the front sight. Then tighten the three bolts and nuts that hold the main frame together.Now the bow can be attached. Once in place, locate the large washer on the front of the bow and insert the large hex bolt through it. Tighten with the provided Hex Allen Wrench. My crossbow came with an extra bow bolt and Allen Wrench. If yours does too, just save them. Only one main bolt is required to attach the bow.Prior to attaching the telescopic sight, the rear standard one must be removed. This is easy but don't stop there. Remove the silver screw on the rail which held the old rear sight. Then remove the long bolt sticking up from it which is left over from the original sight. It will interfere with the scope. The shorter bolt on the front of the rail will not. It is required to hold the dart retainer spring. Leave the short bolt in place.Removing the sight mounting rail will also give you access to moving metal parts which hold and release the bow cable. Give these a very light spray with aerosol gun oil or penetrating oil. Only a quick shot on each pivot is all that is required. Wipe up the excess. Any overspray will drip out the bottom of the trigger assembly lubricating it along the way. Lightly oiling the bow spools is also a good thing to do. They are under a lot of pressure. Spray some oil on a towel and wipe the bow cable and the rails it slides on. Also, wipe the insides of the rails that that the two cocking rods slide in.Reattach the sight rail and mount the scope. One adjustment knob must point up and the other must face right. After shooting 10 darts you will see if scope adjustments need to be made. If your darts are grouped too low or high, unscrew the cap on the top adjuster and use a screwdriver to set up or down. If your shots are right or left, do the same with right facing adjustor. At first try about ¼ turn.Again fire 10 darts. If still more adjustment is required give the screw(s) a 1/8 turn and fire another 10 darts. If your shots are now evenly grouped around the bull's-eye you are done. Screw the cover caps on and you are good to go. If not, keep making adjustments at 1/8 turns. If you over adjust, turn the screw(s) back slightly.The scope also has a focus adjustment. If you loosen the ring at the front of the rear eyepiece you can screw the lens in or out for a sharp focus. About ½ way worked best for me. When sighting, do not put your eye against the scope. 2 to 3 inches behind protects your eye from firing vibration and gives the best view. When you are at the correct distance you will see the crosshairs in a fully lit circle.Cocking: The cocking system in normally locked. To release it, put you hand on the stock handle (not the pistol grip) and press the release button with your thumb. It is located where the trigger would be on a conventional rifle. Pressing the release, continue holding the stock and with your other hand holding the horn on the front of the crossbow pull the stock down until you hear and see the cable lock in place. Relock the stock back in its normal position. I find it easiest to place the stock against my waist when cocking. It makes the process very easy. Once cocked, activate the safety switch DOWN. It is a flipper on the left side of the crossbow at the top of the pistol grip. UP is fire mode.Loading: After cocking, make sure the safety is activated and just in case, never touch the trigger when loading. Place the dart with the `feathers' pointing right and left. Slide the dart underneath the spring clip all the way back until it contacts the stop. Unlike a conventional arrow, there is no groove to be slipped over a string. There will be a small gap behind the stop to allow the cable to pop up and engage the dart properly.Shooting: Once on target, release the safety. Wrap your other hand around your trigger hand as if you were shooting a pistol. Placing a hand underneath the crossbow can and will result in skin burns as the bottom cables travel forward. If your archery target is soft or worn you may need to add two or tree layers of cardboard to keep the dart from sinking all the way in it. As I previously mentioned, this is not a toy.Warnings: Always wear Eye Protection. Do NOT place your other hand underneath the crossbow when shooting. Activate the safety switch before loading a dart. The dart must be properly loaded or harmful misfires can occur. Only release the safety when you are on target. Never air higher than the sights indicate. Make sure the area behind your target is clear in case of a miss. AND, you may find crossbow shooting addictive. : )

Economic way of shooting pretty accurate too better hitting and more durable than aluminum bolts too these plastic ones dont break as easily.

Got the right product

They are lighter than other types of bolts, fly really well. Color helps to track them in flight better. If you shoot them are hard targets, you will have an increased chance of the bolt coming apart (they are all plastic with a glued-on metal tip). They are really accurate and fly true. If you are shooting into a regular archery fabric/carpet target, these will last you a long time, with the occasional dislodge tip you would have to super glue back on. At this cost point I take it that they will break and get lost. It's a consumable item, and will be replaced sooner or later. Well worth buying. Durability for a bolt is lower than most, but its very good for the cost.

Cheap and decent!No, these are not high quality hunting bolts. They are cheap plastic jobbers, with molded on fins that are part of the shaft and a decent target tip.. BUT they are very accurate, relatively tough and great fun. For less than five dollars for 36 of them, we're not talking major money here. Think of them as the equivalent of plinking with a .22 rifle. The tips are sharp, and yes, they may come off. But nothing a bit of superglue can't fix. I shoot outdoors, and if I miss a shot and lose a bolt, this inexpensive bolts mean I don't waste a lot of time trying to find it.If what you want is an inexpensive and surprisingly accurate way to sight in your pistol crossbow, or just something to target practice with, these are just about perfect. The molded fins work very well and don't tend to shear off if you get them all the way into the target. The metal tips are tough and work well until they come off. And I already mentioned the accuracy.Sure they could be made better, with a screw on tip and such. But that would be reflected in a higher price. For what they are, they are just about perfect and deserve a five star rating!

Con un buen uso pueden durar mucho, hay qué tener cuidado en superficies rígidas porqué se rompen fácilmente.
