Discover the world of crossbows, the powerful, silent weapon perfected over centuries and beloved by survivalists...

Crossbow design dates back thousands of years. It is generally accepted that the first crossbows appeared in ancient China around the 5th century BC.

The original crossbow consisted of a bow fixed crosswise to a wooden stock. The projectiles are called bolts and are shorter than traditional arrows, although their length can vary. Over the centuries, the crossbow has been made of wood, iron or steel. It was mainly used in warfare and hunting.

Today, crossbows have acquired a new relevance for game hunting, target shooting, sport shooting and competition. As a result, manufacturers have expanded their range, developing ever more sophisticated and powerful products using materials such as fiberglass.

Although the two main types of crossbows are recurve and compound, there are hundreds of other categories, such as :

  • - tactical crossbow
  • - semi-automatic crossbow
  • - the crossbow shotgun
  • - heavy crossbow
  • - the mini crossbow
  • - the hunting crossbow

So how do you know which one is best for you? When making your choice, it's important to first ask yourself what you intend to do with it.

Whether you're a hunter, a collector, a competitive shooter or just a hobbyist, you all have different expectations when it comes to your throwing weapon of choice.
