Free video

Ran across a copy of The Hunting Crossbow from Excalibur. I believe they gave these out when you bought a new bow. It's in VHS format. Box looks good so I assume video works. Free to first one who pm's me. Not really interested in shipping,so someone in the Kitchener/Waterloo area is best. Thx os

Re: Interesting time with Cops (Update on news)

Our township considers bows/crossbows as firearms and you may not discharge them in a settlement area.
