as a canadian i bursted out laughing when you said its illegal to defend yourself in canada, this country crime only ever goes up, daytime shootings stabbings rapes, but we the civilians who follow the rules are forced to live in fear, the bad guys are always armed better... here its knife to a gun fight type shit.

In countries where self defense is illegal, criminals (as well as certain dumb oppressive laws) exist to remind the common citizen that he has no freedom and that he’s constantly under a Damocles’ sword, as he has no freedom over either his bodily and material integrity, and is to be reminded that he’s a subject and not a citizen; this generates fear and instability in the population which hence turns to the government to be “saved”, but is readily punished as soon as it poses a deterrent to criminality or to the enacting of oppression by either the criminals or the government, both of which are instrumental in maintaining a docile, fearful and controllable population.

I live a good way south of you in the state of Indiana. I sincerely hope that some day you good people can recover your God given right to self defense and the defense of your property. The left keeps trying to take our rights and in fact they have been losing ground. We even got constitutional carry a couple years ago and no longer need a permit to carry a pistol. You all should have the same freedom.

My thought on adder after few intensive months. Its not for hunting, grouping at 17 yards can be 10 inches. Jamming is easily fixed by UPBOLT anti jammer 30 bucks or so. Don't fiddle with broadheads as they are not really reliable accuracy wise. You can get longer bolts and then add broad heads and muzzle load it but again accuracy wont improve that much. Look at this crossbow as a shotgun. Very good for home defence in countries whit shit gun laws.

I agree it’s not really for hunting, but I’m getting much tighter groups than that. At 15 yards, I’m getting about a 3” group when holding the Adder. If I put it in my Workmate vise table, I get tighter than that. I just disabled the auto safety, and yeah if I’m going rapidly my groups are a bit wider. But no hunter is rapid-firing.

Most provinces have a minimum draw weight for hunting crossbows a minimum cutting diameter for broadheads check you rules because it can cost you. Self defense is legal look it up trusting what you hear can cost you.

I bought the 190 lb Venom XTreme limb. It's really badass, especially with the 7-shot magazine. I'm in Canada too. I bought it a couple years ago, and I was surprised it was actually legal. Anyway, I got it before it gets banned. I don't have firearms, so this is a good home defense alternative.

@@Lappemountainliving unfortunately, I don't know. It's a tactical crossbow, so I didn't buy it for long range shooting, and I don't hunt. Not sure that crossbow would be legal to hunt with anyway. But I'd say the increase in range is probably not that much because the bolts are very small and light. I can notice the power, and higher velocity though, and the bolts go deeper into the target, but I can still take them out (a little harder) without damage to the fletching. As a repeating crossbow however, I think it's the ideal weapon for home defense. I know self-defense in Canada is "illegal", but I never said you had to use the weapon. In 99 % of all cases, only pointing that thing, with the laser sight and strong light, towards an intruder, should be an effective deterrent. It's impressive looking. It's not like in the movies where everyone is a freaking mad man with super powers who will jump on you even after being shot twelve times. Unless you are in front of a junkie who's high on some crazy sh*t... But my doors are always locked, 24/7 anyway. I think it will never happen, but it's nice to know you are prepared, just in case. Or, for when sh*t hits the fan...

I have one, got it a couple yrs ago with the 7 bolt mag and auto loader clips. I did the 100 bolt a day thing for a month to fine tune my skill with it. It's deadly accurate to 25 meters with a red dot, or at night a laser if you set it up properly. No problem getting super tight groups and obliterating your bolt supply so learn how to build your own. It has further reach but not with reliable accuracy. Penetration wise, it'll do what you need it to do and quickly.

I love the adder, it’s suits me because my dominant hand is my right but i shoot like a lefty. Its easier and faster for me to crank vs others that try it. I also rigged the automatic safety without taking it apart, it’s truly a tactical weapon now. Im glad there was an alternative to home defense because a gun was the last thing I wanted to get. Although I also have a less lethal tipx paintball marker that shoots basically marbles at 360fps and teargas rounds. Thank god for technology.

Hi there, did the crossbow ever jammed? I'm planning to get one.
@Lappemountainliving
6 ай бұрын
Hi. Yes it did jam once. one time a arrow got crushed in the magazine. I'm not sure what happened exactly but some how the string got on top of the arrow and ruined the arrow as there was not enough room in the string passage for both the arrow and the string. Another thing to watch out for is that the first arrow that goes into the magazine isn't very well supported from behind and can slide rearwards a little, just enough so that the string can't get behind it then when you fire all the arrows jump up and none come out. to cure this after i load the arrows i tip the muzzle end downwards and release the downwards pressure of the "feeder lever" and give the bow a little shake. this causes all the arrows to locate off of the forward end of the magazine and everything works fine. all in all i'm pretty happy with it. hundreds of shots and only two incidences.

Damn I'm an amputee. Right arm above elbow and anything I shoot has to be run through1000 scenarios where I have to make it work with my left arm only. I bought a Horton Quad many years ago - $400 X-bow and I loved shooting it. But climbing through the woods trying to get to my deer stand was a problem!! I hunted it2 times and sold it before the next season. (Got another mini 14). One armed X bow shooting is way harder than riding my motorcycle.

If the 130lb limbs are a little too much for the lady, you could try using a set of the 90lb limbs instead, they are a lot easier to cock using the lever. At short to medium-short ranges the _very slightly_ more parabolic trajectory of the 90lb limbs is not going to be a significant issue and because you'll be using it for target work the drop in power is not really noticeable either. or you could 'split the difference' and try the 110lb limbs.
