this is my first ever instructable so please excuse any hard to follow directions. this is my "piece conservative" crossbow. it has a range of about 30ft shot flat and 40-50ft angled. it also feqatures a new type of trigger that works really well.
p.s. please rate and sub!

do exactly as the pictures show and you should have no problems

i used two 8in bands that r broken but u can put two 6 or 8in bands together and just anchor them in the same places as shown
pic 4 it is crucial that when loading, that the band(s) r placed higher than the notch in the connector
