Don't get cute or I'll send the Provolone brothers myself. You hear what I said. You hear what I said. You hear what I said. It always sounds better when you say it three times. I taught DeNiro that.

looks just like mine did. cocked it and sat it down and snap, crackle & pop ...

[amythntr]

what is it like anti-Micro day ????

I sure hope not, I plan on doing a little shooting with Witching Hour later today once it cools down some.

....you know what they say George, 3's a charm!

I would send those little smilies too but I don't know how. You hear what I said.

Are you looking' at me? Are you lookin' at ME? Love DeNiro!
Sure hate to hear of your problems Anthony, I hope Dr. Miller gets you back on the road again soon!

....this is truly NOT a good sign....I would like to hear what Peter has to say regarding the longevity of these limbs....better yet....lets get a video of the Micro Limbs on that fancy machine that they did their crossbow test against the other CB Manufacturers...

....needless to say this is very disconcerting hearing very similar issues at approximately the same time....I will tell you now, had I not bought the Micro I would definitely be on hold subject to hearing more reports....

....I will definitely put on hold the purchasing of any other EXB's until these problems are worked out!!!

I feel the same Ant.

Question: Did all the Micros whose limbs snapped have the airbrakes on them or no?

The reason I ask is that if yes, that's a common variable in the equation. Maybe by reducing the noise/vibration is also not allowing the limbs to act and flex like they are supposed to thereby restricting their natural firing movement and adding more stress instead of reducing it

[GrassyKnoll]

Oh wow. That stinks for sure. Hope it gets squared away asap.

I noticed a bit more serving wear on your string on the right side of your bow opposite the broken limb. Wonder if that could be a clue to something?

My 405 demonstrated uneven serving wear on one side more that the other too. Could the uneven wear be telling us that the pressure on the sting while cocked on the claws is not even because a limb is developing a crack somewhere?

[MCS]

You can see in Tony's pics he did not have brakes installed.

I thought the scope deal was not to my liking. The micro can get new limbs in a week. Plus I have 2 other crossbows, if one goes south on me

No airbrakes on mine Storm ...

That is correct... The right side has been wearing more.... I had turned the string around after the last time I shot... I would say I have about 270 shots on the string and 300 on the bow itself...

.... Took the limbs off tonight with my son Anthony's help and tools... Both limbs had 27 on the inside....not sure if Danny will want the entire riser with the limbs but either way this will make it easier to ship...

....needless to say I am not happy but know that it will be fixed with no issues...just concerned that there might be an underlying problem with Micro/limbs them self... Time will tell!

[StormDragon]

Ok, so airbrakes aren't on all of them so that rules that out.

What other things might be similar in all instances? I read that serving wear on one side more then the other might be a hint of possible problems but what else could be the commonality in all cases?

Arrow weight and length possibly, temperatures? It could be something as "simple" yet equally as untraceable as a bad batch of materials used to make the limbs or a glitch in the limb making process itself

And if i remember correctly, didn't Scorpyd have a problem with their limbs doing something similar?
