Zag Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 I found a really good deal on a xbow on eBay, brand new but not assembled. Is it fairly simple to get setup or do I need professional help? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moog5050 Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 I bought a cheap one on ebay. Assembly is just attaching the stock. Very easy as I recall. BTW - killed 2 deer with it a few years ago. Worked fine for $170 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bolt action Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 Should be simple. I bought mine online and had to assemble it. As long as all the parts are there you should be fine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hueyjazz Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 Assembly is usually one bolt and about five minutes to do. I'm unaware of any ability to tune a crossbow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nyslowhand Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 Even buying a new Xbow directly from the mfger, you'll have to attach the bow section to the stock. Easy-peasy! As far as I know there is no tuning necessary with a Xbow, unlike with a regular compound bow! Some may have trigger adjustments, but out of the box they'll shoot where you aim! One thing you may need to keep in mind if using a rope cocker, pull back evenly to put same pressure on each limb. There are gizmos that attach to the rope and hook the string to help prevent this! I give this advice to all people thinking of buying their 1st Xbow - inexpensive xbows come with cheapo scopes. First thing a lot of people have to do is buy (~$150) a better scope. So, with the cost of an inexpensive Xbow and a scope upgrade, you're automatically into the mid-price range of a better Xbow. Just my 2¢, take it or leave it....
