Maximus Crossbows

[bigbuck]

Hi there.
Whats the deal with these Maximus Crossbows?
They look like some kind of an Excal knock off.
Has anyone tried one?
Are they Canadian?

CHINA I would imagine warranty will be a problem.
Never seen one in person

You know what you get when you buy "CHINA" JUNK comes to mind

I'm sure China makes killer crossbows. Just like they make killer toys, killer paint, killer dog food, killer baby food....

And Toyotas

I fear this is the start of something similar to that which has already happended in the gun community, where Chinese clones are becoming increasingly popular. The Chinese have got many of the "traditional" gun companies beat on price-point and it sure doesn't help when the "traditional" gun companies are offering increasingly lousy products (still better than the Chinese in most cases) and poor customer service.

Bill and Cathy; may your company grow, prosper, transition smoothly when you are ready to retire, and never, ever, be bought up by an anonymous private equity firm!

And Toyotas

My '98 Corolla was made just a few miles from here by people in my community. It's the car that seems to thrive on neglect - it just keeps on going! The most reliable car I've ever owned.

The "defective" part on the Japanese inspired, North American Toyota came from a supplier in Missisauga Ont


Oh ya, dont buy a Maxximus. They suck. MmmKay?
Seriously I held one and they weight double what an excalibur does.

[gerald strine]

Toyota would be a Japanese company not a Chinese owned company.

[TPM]

Seriously I held one and they weight double what an excalibur does.

I understand that their rail is solid so that would probably account for much of the weight issue.
