    A number of Euro companies make after-market multi-shot 'magazines' for these exact bows.
    They can be fitted to crossbows using the existing fittings without drilling or machining.
    They do raise the 'sight over bore' axis a bit but the advantage of 5, 8 or more shots before a reload is tempting. It changes the game quite a lot.

Like every gun, they’re only as reliable as the person smart enough to always have one with them. Get armed now if your not! What’s great about that is it’ll fire sticks even when the bullets run out!

    I've got the version with the conventional limbs, works very well, it's pretty consistent with accuracy, the construction is solid. I like it a lot. I wish they had a small attachable quiver, the ones you can get like the Barnett quiver is made for the thicker, 7" bolts, so it doesn't work with the thinner bolts you get from Ballista BAT. The other thing is their broadheads (not fancy, but certainly functional) are 44 grains, the lightest field points I've found are either 40gr or 50gr (went with the 50s) - if you put a standard (100+ gr) broadhead or field point on the bolts, the drop is more pronounced and you lose some of the velocity. The accuracy I got with mine was about 2" at 25 yards standing - the trigger is pretty stiff - it can probably shoot tighter with a solid rest.

    That is a neat little thingy. For fishing, it's nice and light. Would be good for gar fishing and Carp and stuff in Florida. I see these bowfishing setups for sale online, with spincast reels. My first spincast reel that my parents bought me when I was a kid, I hooked a big carp and my reel literally exploded onto the grass, parts flying everywhere. Just use some light rope and a reel made for heavier line, like a winch.

    Worth noting, in many if not most states in the US, this isn't legal for hunting as the bolts, I suspect, do not meet minimum length requirements for crossbow seasons. Which is kind of a shame. But I'll still probably get one just to have.

      It shoots the larger 17-23 inch bolts

      Most of us hunters don't give a damn about regulations. We pay our dues.

    If you could remove that forward grip and put on a pistol red dot, that thing would easily fit in a small backpack.
    Very cool!
