Review: First crossbow - Easy to assemble. Scope is lackluster but you will hit the target with it right out of the box. Crank works well, the switch to disengage the crank is difficult to get to and move sometimes.
Review: My Son bought this bow also. - Injured my back years ago and had to give up bow hunting. Talked with my son and decided to purchase this one also, but with the hand crank. Hand crank works well, just need to get it sighted in. It has great speed, and was easy to assemble. Like the fact that the stock is adjustable too. UPDATE: 9/21/2024 I was sighting my crossbow in today. Finally got it sighted in to the 20yd mark. I was getting ready to shoot my 11th or 12th bolt out of it since I purchased it and just as I finished cocking it, I heard a Crack and the limb broke on me. Now I guess I get to see how well customer service and the warranty work. Will update again, when I see if Barnett stands by their product.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ First crossbow

Easy to assemble. Scope is lackluster but you will hit the target with it right out of the box. Crank works well, the switch to disengage the crank is difficult to get to and move sometimes.
