unhappy with trigger

With your gun experience you know what a double set trigger is, what you are doing by pulling the safety to take up the slack is dangerous.

Guys, please remember, I DIDN'T start the other thread or anything. Just asking a question. I see I rubbed some the wrong way! I see it's a "taboo" subject here. Will try to remember that in the future. I will continue to ask for help, when needed, as well as join in conversations, but wil...

I'm missing something here. The point that IF you speak highly of the competition, YOUR WRONG, but if you speak down about the competition, it's OK????

If you didn't see the thread that was removed, you CAN NOT reply on it SORRY!

I've shot them both, and after I tore the Middleton apart and saw the "precision" with which it was built, I forbid my employees from firing it due to serious safety concerns. I will not give them the advantage of my years of insight into their crossbow design beyond this statement, but a...

A.W. NO THAT IS NOT THE POST! The one I posted on was By GRAYWOLF, and I think is was called: "Not to beat a dead horse" I think. It was nice, polite and informative for ME. I'm just wondering WHAT HAPPENED TO IT. YES it did say how GRAYWOLF's employer was now going to carry Middleton's an...

Missing Post/DELETED

I have posted on this thread today, and I thought it was a good thread, due to the fact that it's an Excal forum, and the thread was by Graywolf saying that the hype behind the Middleton Crossbow seems to be true!!! This is one of the bows that I'm looking at, and I would like to see/hear from those...

Newbie

I'm new here, and to Crossbow scene. At this time, I DO NOT OWN a xbow. But on the comments of "JIM C.", I thought I should "log on" and get the answers to my questions here as well. I'm looking at a purchase in or around April and this manufacturer is one of the TOP TWO that I'm...
