This may answer your question. http://www.excaliburcrossbow.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=159532&highlight=#159532 I don't use the GT's anymore because the quality of the product went down. I did use them for years and was happy. Then I started reading reports of some problems with quality control....
