Tarpon Springs, FL -(AmmoLand.com)- Barnett’s Raptor and Lady Raptor crossbows may be diminutive in size when compared to some crossbows, but they don’t compromise performance or power with their smaller package.
These crossbows are designed for the value-minded hunter who prefers a more compact weapon or needs a smaller crossbow due to stature, yet refuses to compromise on performance.
The Raptor FX and Lady Raptor FX have 150-pound draw weights and share cutting-edge design that includes custom composite limbs and a high-energy cam system. These crossbows send arrows down range at 330 feet per second while generating 97 foot-pounds of energy. The Raptor and Lady Raptor are 18 inches wide, 34.25 inches in length, and the crossbows weigh just 6.5 pounds each.
Both Raptor models feature high-definition camo patterns, but the Lady Raptor is available in Muddy Girl Camo for the female hunter who prefers to stand out. Retailing for $399.99, the Raptor FX and Lady Raptor FX crossbow packages include a 4×32 multi-reticle scope, a rope, cocking device and three-bolt quiver with three, 20-inch Headhunter bolts. A Red Dot Sight is also available for these crossbows.
Like all new Barnett crossbows, the Raptor and Lady Raptor feature lightweight composite stocks and CNC Machined 7/8-inch Picatinny rails for mounting accessories. They also have “finger reminders” for shooting safety and pass-through foregrips, plus Barnett’s proprietary CROSSFIRE String and Cable System.
Engineered with the hunter in mind, Barnett incorporates lightweight materials, ergonomic design, durable construction and blazing fast power to give precise results with every shot. With industry leading technology, like a step-through-riser that lengthens the power stroke of the bow without placing the cocking string beyond arms length, Barnett’s Innovation separates their crossbows from the competition. The metal-injected molded trigger allows for the tightest quality tolerance available and accounts for a smooth trigger pull. There are no dry-fires thanks to the Anti-Dry-Fire System where a spring-loaded safety bar remains in place until the arrow is seated properly. This protects the user from shooting the weapon without an arrow properly in place.
The feel and experience of Barnett crossbows is unforgettable and unduplicated. They say it’s in the bloodline that runs through all Barnett crossbows. The designs are streamlined, the engineering is precise, and the results are absolutely deadly. Shoot a Barnett crossbow, and you’ll understand why hunters who have refuse to compromise with any other crossbow.
