-- Posted by evil elf on 4:21 pm on April 3, 2002 does any one know how to build a HAND crossbow? thanks for any one that replies. -- Posted by johnny 99 on 4:26 pm on April 3, 2002 What do you mean by a HAND crossbow? A pistol crossbow? -- Posted by evil elf on 5:58 pm on April 3, 2002 ya a pistol crossbow -- Posted by johnny 99 on 8:28 pm on April 3, 2002 The easiest thing to do would be to look on e-bay. They sell them all day long for a couple of bucks, in 50 and 80 lbs. I find the 80 lb. version more than suficient to hunt rabbits out to about 20 meters with broadhead arrows. -- Posted by cort on 11:40 pm on April 4, 2002 www.crossbowpistols.com -- Posted by paladinpress on 10:33 am on April 5, 2002 I have a hastely copied plan from a 1951 Popular Mechanics Issue the file size is 284kb it is crude but if you want it I'll give it to you -- Posted by paulroberts6 on 9:31 am on April 6, 2002 I Would like the plans if that is possable -- Posted by johnny 99 on 11:58 am on April 6, 2002 Why not just post it here? I've seen that issue on e-bay, but never owned it. what do they make the bow out of ? -- Posted by Mr Tripp on 1:33 pm on April 6, 2002 I own a pistol crossbow, its a Phantom 35lb one, practically the cheapest you can buy, £36 at max. Its not very accurate but it does the job :) the only problem with them are those shitty little bolts you get with them, practically blunt (But the heads can be screwed off :) so I made my own by jamming the head of a soldern iron in one. If you want a crossbow tho i suggest you look for Barnett, they are the largest manufacturer of crossbows in th UK. -- Posted by JaMeZz34 on 6:52 pm on April 8, 2002 How do u make a bow and arrow which is quite accurate?? Cheers -- Posted by DoDgE on 5:29 am on April 11, 2002 to make a accurate arrow u have to put flights on ur arow  ermm   3 is usually good i've nev a tried more but 2 is good 3 is betta so dunna 500 flights willl hit a ant in the cock from 3 km or won't work for shit     http://www.bombshock.com
