this is worth the the money for a first time crossbow is is very fast and and easy to put together and well worth the money i used last hunting seasson and it's very deadly even with the sights that comes with it but would get a scope to out on it

Very nice bow for the price. It sets bolts like some other expensive brand name bows I have used. The only down fall is that it is noisy on letoff due to the cable system. However though it has its advantage with replacing the strings. Strings are much easier to replace on this bow and are cheap. You can even easily make one yourself. Overall a good bow for fun target shooting if you dont mind noise and vibration. I suggest it for all friends and family. I wouldnt suggest it for the very serious competitive target shooter but you get what you pay for. This bow is worth the money.

This is my first compound crossbow, I have compound bows. It shoots well and so far I have hit the target 8 out of 10 shots at 50 and 75 yards

I bought the MK-250 crossbow as a second, inexpensive xbow to teach my kids to shoot and for target practice. For an inexpensive xbow this ones a good choice. At 150lb draw I'm able to cock it by hand or with a rope device. The xbow is fairly light and decently made. It has a light weight, attactive black plastic stock and aluminum barrel. The bows are solid with a texture flat black finish that seems as if it will hold up well. The cables are decent and the string seems okay. The stirup is a metal hex shaped loop that seems to do it's job. The scope included with this model is a cheap piece of plastic. I went to walmart and bought an $8 crossman 4X Targetfinder Superscope that was meant for a pellet rifle or airsoft gun. It's a basic crosshair with a 3/8 mount. Works fine for this crossbow. The MK-250 doesn't have your normal weaver type mount so you'd need to find a scope with a 3/8 mounting rings or buy an adaptor to use most of your normal red dot and scopes out there.
Assembly was easy. Sighting with the Crossman scope was quick and done with 6 shots.

This bow sinks bolts (I bought the 20" aluminum bolts for this xbow) into my targets almost as deeply as my Carbon Exress X-Force 400 with a 175lb draw and advertised 310 fps speed. Not bad. It's a little louder than my X-Force but not crazy unacceptable. I may add some LimbSavers to see if that helps quite it down.

All and all I would totally recommend this crossbow as a great starter, second/backup xbow or just for a fun inexpensive, light xbow.

Bought this for my husband for Christmas. It was a really good price for such a nice crossbow. He loves it. It only comes with 2 arrows so you need to go buy some arrows to go along with it but it's really actually very awesome. Looks great. Works great. 5 STARS!

THIS IS ONE AWSOME CROSSBOW. THREW A 4 POWER SCOPE ON IT. IT SHOOTS SPOT ON...SEENS BETTER WITH BROADHEADS. 6"CIRCLE AT 70 YARDS. GOOD ECERCISE COCKING IT.

In the picture there's a bolt holder but in the box there wasn't! So I assumed I would be getting one but apparently not.
