They are a mite 'lumpy' in CCW mode though...
I came across a fairly old one at a Gun Show one time, it was thought to be late 1800s, and German, and I believe that was correct.
It was very well made, had a nice style, was in good condition, and serviceable, and was priced at like $250.00 or so.
I thought about it, but, ended up walking on. ( Probably that was a very 'reasonable' price too ).
Seems like a Cross Bow could be fun and interesting to have.
I myself do not Hunt, so, no draw there ( pardon the pun ).
