00:00:00what’s up its Greek edgy guru here with
00:00:03a self cocking pistol crossbow I just
00:00:05got this in the mail a few days ago then
00:00:07playing around with it and uh this is
00:00:10literally the best $30
00:00:12I’ve spent a long time 30 bucks free
00:00:16shipping on Amazon don’t look at any
00:00:18other site they’re going to rip you off
00:00:19I originally bought this on a web site
00:00:22they’re selling it for 40 with $15
00:00:25shipping so I got 12 extra arm bolts and
00:00:32the bow itself for less than just the
00:00:37price of the bow that they were selling
00:00:39on this other website so Amazon the but
00:00:42use your best bet if you’re interested
00:00:44it comes with three arrows not that
00:00:47great but a 12 pack of metal tip era’s
00:00:51are I think like six dollars really
00:00:54reasonable and I had a old crossbow that
00:00:58was piece of shit it was a 15 pound
00:01:01crossbow this is an 80 pound crossbow
00:01:04and they ran off these plastic tips
00:01:07which are surprisingly more durable than
00:01:09the metal ones because when it hits a
00:01:11target it tends to bend and absorb the
00:01:14impact whereas these just warp and you
00:01:19know break so if you’re going to buy one
00:01:23of these you might as well get a set of
00:01:26these plastic ones so that you can have
00:01:29some target practice and you have to
00:01:30worry about wasting the more expensive
00:01:33ones so self caulking the way it works
00:01:37you have this button right here it’s a
00:01:41little switch you grab it from the front
00:01:43and you just pull back so now it
00:01:48automatically goes into safety mode so
00:01:50if I pull the trigger I have to press it
00:01:53forward to actually shoot it I’m not
00:01:55going to dry fire it and I will show you
00:01:57how it shoots this is going to be my
00:02:01target which is a pretty thick piece of
00:02:04cardboard it’s 12 sheets step 12 pieces
00:02:08thick and it pierces through this like
00:02:11butter
00:02:13actually it will go through it will push
00:02:17the target backwards I’m going to leave
00:02:19a little bit of room so that you can see
00:02:21how much recoil it takes to the target
00:02:24and of course I am shooting this
00:02:26point-blank so you’re going to see a
00:02:29more dramatic effect when you put the
00:02:32bolt in make sure you don’t go any
00:02:34farther than this arch right here this
00:02:36bend because what will happen is the
00:02:40bowstring will just completely skip the
00:02:42arrow because a real ugly noise and it
00:02:44actually can damage your bow so for a
00:02:49shot safety off alright so that went
00:02:57completely through and through oh shoot
00:03:02obvious completely through I’m not just
00:03:08shooting a different area it’s starting
00:03:10to get weakened but that went through
00:03:13and of course into my wall you can see
00:03:18back there and I’ll show you another one
00:03:27nice thing about these bolts is this
00:03:33screws off and that gives me a lot of
00:03:36capabilities for different ammunition
00:03:38types for example I’m depo these are ten
00:03:4530-second screws I just put some teflon
00:03:51tape to fill in the extra that’s what it
00:03:54would look like and I’ll just unscrew it
00:03:57for you to show so it screws in there
00:04:02nice and snug this is like a ramming
00:04:05area for our blunt tip area just for
00:04:09target practice and whatnot so I’ll
00:04:11shoot one of those just to show you
00:04:18other modifications I might do I’m
00:04:20probably going to do like a repeating
00:04:22crossbow type of mod so I don’t have to
00:04:24load them individually maybe a better
00:04:27grip so I don’t have to hold it from the
00:04:28front and fire okay so that one didn’t
00:04:39go completely through didn’t expect it
00:04:41to because of the tip and it’s lodged in
00:04:45there of course so I don’t know I’m
00:04:50going to get that out but you guys
00:04:53understand how it works it’s better for
00:04:58impact versus penetration and last one
00:05:04is a flat head screw same deal thing
00:05:09that I like about this is gives me a
00:05:11surface to attach a cap or a shotgun
00:05:14primer or something something along the
00:05:17lines it gives me a surface to actually
00:05:19adhere something so I can make a new
00:05:22type of ammo and this will be a
00:05:27demonstration of that type of arrow
00:05:36alright so I honestly don’t know where
00:05:40that shot I think it was right there so
00:05:46yeah right about there so you can tell
00:05:50these don’t go and as far as the regular
00:05:53arrow tips and last I’ll show you the
00:05:57plastic arrow type if you guys have any
00:06:02other ideas for types of ammo we have a
00:06:05comment below that way when I’m building
00:06:09these I have your ideas in mind that I
00:06:11can try and give you guys what you want
00:06:14so okay
00:06:23so same deal one right through I mean I
00:06:29couldn’t stab through this if I tried I
00:06:32could maybe sit here for like five
00:06:35minutes and wiggle my way through all 12
00:06:39layers but there’s no way I could just
00:06:41pierce right through so you can tell
00:06:46there’s a lot of power 80
00:06:47it says 80 pound crossbow on the website
00:06:51doesn’t say it on the box so I don’t
00:06:53know where they’re getting their
00:06:55information from but it seems pretty
00:06:58accurate I’ll shoot one more just to
00:07:07show you guys because it’s fun just get
00:07:11that one too there it is again
00:07:19so it only stopped because the arrow tip
00:07:22arrow wings are too wide so you can
00:07:33understand the point yeah so another
00:07:37look nice grip doesn’t feel cheap at all
00:07:42I mean it is made in China but
00:07:46everything works the way it should
00:07:49usually from Chinese items whenever
00:07:53they’re casted out of the mold of the
00:07:55metal you’ll see little burrs and things
00:07:58sharp edges and everything from what I
00:08:01can tell is really well rounded and the
00:08:05only thing I could say is maybe this
00:08:06grip is a little flimsy but other than
00:08:11that nice adjustable it actually adjusts
00:08:16it’s not just for show this right here
00:08:20will go up and down
00:08:27and then this will also change here from
00:08:32left to right so pretty well made
00:08:37product for 30 bucks so like I said post
00:08:42comments below of what you want to see
00:08:44type of ammo types and also check out my
00:08:48Facebook I check it very often so you
