The red-vane bolts work fine. They do fracture after hitting a target from the 130 pound prod a few times though. But that makes them ideal for broadheads for self/home defense! Put a mechanical 2-blade broadhead on it. Don’t glue it in place, just friction-fit it. As the bolt hits the target, not only do the blades expand and hook into the assailant but perhaps the shaft also fractures - resulting in more tissue damage. Sometimes, ya gotta think outside the box a bit.....

The red bolts are now available cheap. If you shoot them a couple times, the tip will come loose. You are then at liberty to modify them. I’ve added mechanical broadheads to them. They work well but are expensive, and though the Adder is powerful those mechanicals only penetrate a few inches into meat before getting stuck. So now I am buying the 6.5” bolts with screw-in mini broadheads, and taking them apart and using the mini broadhead in the red arrow. There are companies actually selling those broadheads pre-installed in the red arrows, but those arrows are nearly a half inch too long to fit in the Adder!

Hi Mike, this is why I went with the FMA Supersonic X-Bow. I try and avoid any company that tries to lock you in with proprietary accessories and overly clever marketing. It reminds me of Apple... I recently ditched my iPad for an Amazon Fire 10 tablet and couldn't be happier. I was in the market for a crossbow. After much research and deliberation, I just couldn't get my head around the huge cocking cycle for the ADDER. I was also leaning towards the Cobra Siege too, thanks to Joerg Sprave's great videos. But it had the same issue. The big attraction for me was always the magazine. Then I discovered a KZitemr called Andy's Solutions who makes English/German videos. He invented a skeletal magazine design for the FMA Supersonic X-Bow that can take almost any bolt (he has rebranded the FMA Supersonic X-Bow as a Mamba that he resells with the magazine). I recommend you check out these small form factor compound crossbows that Andy is reselling in Germany. After watching Andy's videos and a few others demonstrating the FMA Supersonic X-Bow from British KZitemrs, my mind was made up. I ordered the REV limb version with AR15 stock and the standard limb version pistol crossbow from a UK supplier. I'm just waiting for them to arrive. The larger one is on back-order. Watching Andy's videos made up my mind, particularly the >300 fps that this X-Bow delivers. The REV model is >400fps. He has a very funny video where he cocks and fires the Mamba one-handedly by connecting the cocking handle to a parachute cord around his neck. He uses the other hand to fend off an imagined attacker. Much like yourself, he is an innovator. Anyhow, greetings from Scotland and thank you for sharing your thoughts and tips on the ADDER.

Received today 04-15-2020 regarding your ability to buy the proprietary half moon nocks as replacements. Remember, the nocks are .244 in size and fit arrows, not standard crossbow bolts. Secondly, a .244 half moon nock does NOT exist anywhere in the world - except the Cobra RX Adder! (Think about that for a minute...) Secondly, I made a follow up video where I tried to make Cobra arrows out of standard crossbow shafts (which use .299 and .300 inserts)... and the Cobra RX design specs were SO TIGHT that they will NOT accept crossbow shafts. The tiny difference in thickness is too big/fat to fit in the Adder! Since I couldn't half .244 moon nocks, I asked GoGun if I could buy the nocks from them. This was their reply.. ------------------------------------- Dear Customers, the replacement nocks will be available for order in the future. An exact date when the articles are available is currently not known to us, please contact us again in 1-2 months. Mit freundlichen Grüßen Lasse Adam ------------------------------------- So there you go! Stay tuned for my video on making your own - out of standard .244 nock stock! I have a feeling that GoGun and EK Archery produced a great gun with very little thought for the arrows that go in them... If they would have designed the Adder (and the arrow groove on the gun) to be 1mm thicker, this would have been truly a GREAT gun, but... Not really sure what they were thinking. Hugely restricting!

I bought the AR Stinger because I had reservations about the adder. You can buy 6.5” bolts that are non proprietary and they work without any issues. I’ve been going back and forth about whether to pay for the adder, but it looks like it would be more practical to get the R9 and install the magazine from up-bolt that allows you to shoot 15” bolts , and replace the 90 lb limb with a 170 or 190 lb limb. I believe Joerg has a video on how to add a magazine onto the R9.

i just wanted to say that the V20 magazine that holds 7 bolts, speed-loads, and allows you to front-load longer arrows and move the spring into a standby position. I hate to say this but the Adder without the metal V2.0 does seem limiting. If you decide to get the second laser and flashlight mount you will need to shim the mount to get in aligned. I don't think that it was on purpose I would bet that it is 3D Printed to a prototype that worked. I also just ordered 20 bolts from them and got them in 2.5 weeks.

(shaped like a keyhole) this causes JAMS with non-proprietary shafts! you will need to carefully file the magazine down towards the end if you wish to use these kind of bolts :( yeah this is annoying issue with their odd bolts, I did buy some recently released "generic" Chinese bolts for the Cobra system, same as the Adder but slightly different tip design, but they tended to jam

The red vane bolts are way to light for the cobras power output. You need 5 grain per lb of draw weight so 130lbs x 5 = 650grain. The red vane bolts weigh around 185 - 200 grain. 6 inch nails fit perfectly into the inside of the red vanes shafts if you want to make up the deficit.

Hi Mike, I tried this and they are slightly different. I have split several arrows in the process of putting them in place of the old nock even after sanding the insert part down. The grooves on the insert part of the new nocks are not in the same placement as the original nocks so they don't slide into the old grooves made by the original nocks. There is also a very slight difference in thickness which I think is why I split several arrows. I really had my hopes up and then I went to shoot them out of 10 shots I had 2 misfires, so I will not be using these anymore. They are close but not suitable. Please let me know if you find another solution. Thanks

Yeah. They are pricks w that. And it’s 80$ for ten bolts. It’s a gimmick. It’s cool. I have 3 of them. Lmao. This was very helpful

This Xbow was 2-3 times cheaper than anything else on the market and the only bow that has a magazine so like a rifle just buy the right bolts, real men can do it, LOL, sorry just being an ass, i have this Xbow and thought i had hundreds of bolts because i have a small almost pistol xbow, just checked and the bolts are too small, thanks for the heads up, i bought a bunch of inexpensive arrows so i can 2-3 bolts per arrow and will use wooden dowels to make 1/2 moon nocks, then paint the ends with fiberglass resin for strength and then heat shrink the nock and arrow for a nicer finish. Hope my plan works

If you use the carbon arrowstock I recommended, you can make 48 bolts. The cost per bolt is roughly $2.50 to make yourself. What's your explaining is roughly $1.80, US per bolt and that's great! However, if you have to make them shorter, the easiest way to do that is to cut the tip end off and then you will have to replace the inserts, which is almost $1 per item. That would make them more expensive. Also, my Deutsch is just okay but in your description, it clearly describes the bolts as plastic and not carbon. This is a big deal for 130 lb crossbow.

just mentioned this in jorgs video and he came at me with well you complaining why the adder wont take other ammo is like complaining why a 9 mill glock not being able to shoot .45 ACP. Im just sitting there like, " I know im giving you shit for making a system that shoots proprietary arrows and no one but OEM sells spare arrows. You either bite the bullet or you have to make your own." Im not too familiar with crossbow ammunition but the Cobra adder ammo is bullshit. WE all know they manufactured this so they can make loads of cash from people NOT being able to shoot readily available bolts. Sony did the same thing with the Ps Vita when it came out. That gameboy like handheld only took proprietary memory cards that ONLY Sony manufactured. idk if other manufactures made memory cards for the ps vita but i lost interest when I found out about this. Looks like im gonna have to buy one of those single fire ones or a full sized one. I would have got a full sized crossbow by now, but the reloading procedure seems wack.
