Southland Archery Supply SAS Rogue 80 Pound Self-Cocking Pistol Crossbow

Very worth the money! Delivered fast in great shape. Fairly easy to assemble. More powerful than I even anticipated lol. Just make sure you have a proper target to shoot at! I had to make a target upgrade after purchasing this bow because I wasn’t anticipating so much from a little bow.

Bought this as a toy. Turned it into a small game killing machine just by custom making some bolts long enough to use a standard Broadhead.cocks easy and is very consistent with decent bolts. Almost indestructible and easy to restring

Great crossbow! Very accurate and powerful. However, the assembly wasn’t easy at all.

Many years ago I paid nearly this much for a simple pistol. This is far superior!Some tips on assembly as I noted some had issues. The stringer maybe a tad long, this will leave you with a struggle getting the bow string over the molded end. If this happens to you, no worries, just undo one of the knots on the stringer and retie it (with a knot that can easily be undone once pressure has been applied, think 'clove hitch with a tag end').Next tip, look at all of the parts. There are two rubber pieces and a metal piece in the bag of screws. The rubber pads go on both sides of the bow, and the metal piece goes on top of the rubber piece for the screw to hit against. You note a divot on one side for the screw to settle in. I had the whole thing assembled and when I went to put the handle on, noticed the pads and plate (duh, forehead slap).Nicely designed, easy to assemble. Easy to use and seemingly well made. A large improvement over what I got thirty years ago!

The most fun purchase I have made here by far. I added a second scope and this thing handles like a dream. I love it, highly recommend. Be safe it can be deadly.

This pistol crossbow could have been one of the best on the market, but sadly it failed where it really needed to excell at.Pros. The iron sight is decent, almost as good as the horizon red back's. It comes with rails for foregrip attachments and optics. The cocking system has rubber on the tip to protect the string unlike other cheap pistol crossbow. Most impressive is the adjustable buttstock. The buttstock can extend up to a foot from the iron sight.This makes the crossbow so easy to cock that I wanted the bow limbs to be more powerful.Cons. The cocking lock in the back is made of plastic. Mine broke after shooting about 150 bolts. The locking mechanism for the string is cheap. Nothing is holding the bow string back except friction when you cock it back. Once my string was worn down a little and there was bow wax on the string, I was no longer able to reliably cock the string back. The string would just slip out of place and dry fire.The little improvement they added on this pistol crossbow, make it much better than 90% of pistol crossbow on the market. It fails to compete with the horizon red back or tomcat because of the cheap cocking system and non existing lock and trigger system. So in short buy this pistol crossbow if you want a fairly cheap PC and with some of the bells and whistles. Don't expect this item to last long or to shoot alot of bolts without breaking down in some way. If you have the money just buy a horizon red back.

This bow is really cool for the price, i turned it Inyo a fishing pistol bow & one caught a couple carp, no gar yet but with a decent red dot sight this thing is awesome!

I have strung recurve bows before, but was unable to string this. I went to the website; I wasn't able to find an email or phone # (not a good sign). They had a chat option. I chatted several times and was not answered. It's 4 days later and they still haven't answered. I returned it today.
