Laws Regarding Crossbows Please

[powered by ?]

Purchased one recently locally,was told that the small crossbows are illegal however not the bigger ones, there is a store in Duncan village that has the permit to bring them in..its also mandatory that you do three hours of training in which you will acquire a permit ..They currently have the Raptor fx2 in stock..A bit on the costly side..

Do you still have it for sale? If so send some pics of it.

Bows & crossbows are considered restricted offensive weapons. From the longbow to recurve to compound to crossbow & are not allowed to be imported without a permit. Not even if its a bow with a 2lb draw, still requires a permit. If you want to get into archery you will have to join any of the archery clubs & they will help you get a permit to keep said equipment & many of them often have equipment for sale. If travelling anywhere in T&T with a bow it must not be strung.
Honestly though, crossbows are crap. Short heavy slow moving projectiles that are only effective at short distances.
Op if u srs about getting into archery join a club & get a compound bow or recurve instead.

Bows arnt slow, its a stealth device, btw you cannot hear an arrow coming.
