Not for me, but sure is nicely done.
I can't wait to get into a covey of deer with that !
Actually, it could really be fun to stick hogs with it. Well made, looks like.
I wanted to see it shoot!
Why not,................ this is simply the next phase of technology. Probably still be called bowhunting by many. Bowhunting has lost so much already, may as well keep going.
There's already a weapon made for this purpose. It's called a firearm.
Hunting implications withstanding, that thing looks pretty darn fun to play with.
Yep, bowhunting is ruined. Allen ruined it back in 1966. Been getting more ruined ever since. Now when DNRs see this they will stop all bowhunting seasons after this year by simply outlawing all hand-drawn, hand-held bows. It's over, guys.....
More marginally shot deer would be recovered as the shooter could keep flinging until success was achieved.
Said tongue in cheek, notice the word hunter was not used.
Imagine how many arrows/bolts you will loose with that thing! It's all about new ways of tapping us for our hard earned money. No thanks.
I'll put that money towards shinny pretty fishing lures and micro brew.
That is a definite upgrade from his earlier coke bottle model.
IF, and I repeat, IF, you could silence that thing, I could see me killing numerous hogs with it. Pork kabobs ! What could be better ? As it is, the noise would make the repeater thingy superfluous.
Didn't Van Helsing use one of those to shoot vampires?
I'll pass. No vampire season in TN.

If he used expandable broadheads he could increase arrow capacity to an even dozen.
This is a big reason why I belong to the P&Y Club!!!
Crazy but we all have a choice to buy or not to. I would not call it archery nor the crossman air bow.
Looks like the kind of things guys build when they live in countries with oppressively restrictive gun laws.
I think that it really cool.
The chicken little-ish attempts to draw parallels to bowhunting equipment are specious. The weapon is a repeating pneumatic air gun which happens to fire an arrow/bolt as a projectile. That doesn't make it a bowhunting gear any more than used a .38 casing as a blunt tip makes a bow a firearm.
Ok. That thing is wicked looking and probably best to get it to a single arrow.
I do see a huge market for kids who don't like the boom of a rifle and aren't big enough to pull bows back yet.
I agree it doesn't belong in archery season but definitely should be legal in general season.
I'd get one because I like toys :)
