milegajo 595 Posted May 4, 2012 Report Share Posted May 4, 2012 Not legally. Outlawed bows in UK 300 years ago. Urban myth says welshmen at a hundred paces in a church on a certain day of the year can still be legally killed... Wouldn't stop me if the poo headed in the direction of the fan though...actually a tool I'm seriously considering adding to my collection, maybe I will quietly if air rifles lose their challenge...some good vids of yanks on youtube using them with good results.

milegajo 595 Posted May 4, 2012 Report Share Posted May 4, 2012 Jeezus Christ easy tiger! Mods! Mods! Lock this thread down! Can't have pics of such devices! Especially one so competitively priced and accessible... I would pay good money to the man who brings me a rabbit despatched cleanly with that bad boy! I'd also bow down and worship him as my hero. Love the sights, wonder what the triggers like. Come one someone, lets have a full review! Quote Link to post
