Re: going naked

i dont use silencers or suppressors either on my exomax they really arent that loud , not like the crack of a gun, i do shoot a heavier aluminum arrow , which probably helps with sound but to me adding all that stuff just complicates things , naked is good!!!

Re: New to crossbows

i have an exomax and axiom , would recommend both highly or any of the excaliburs, havent really came across or heard of one that didnt shoot well, like recurves simple less to go wrong and can change strings in no time , you really cant go wrong with any of excaliburs
