HORTON
Horton had one of the product that
intrigued me most.
When last year I visited the IWA show
I met people from Armcross, a Russian crossbow
maker, with an incredible reversed limb crossbow:
the LeoPro.
At the ATA show Horton, thanks to an agreement with
Armcross, introduced the reCon 175 a reversed limb
crossbow based on the original Armcross idea but
engineered like a tactical weapon system
The reCon 175 features:
very compact design thanks to the
reverse limb design
325 FPS with 305grs Arrow (17" Easton
FatBoy arrows)
12 1/2" power stroke
weight 8 pounds
Adjustable MAGPUL CTR Stock
Magpul MIAD front grip
3 MAGPUL Weaver rails (covered with
MAGPUL XT Panels) for additional accessories
The reCon 175 is sold in a package
with scope, rings, quiver, 4 arrows, cocking rope
You really have to handle one to feel
how balanced it is and how easily you can move it
around , to me it is the single coolest product of
this trade show, cannot wait to get my hands on one
to see how it performs.
Also new for 2008 are stock decals to
go on the Tacoma entry level model, a new Sky light
quiver , a quiver designed to be mounted over your
rail/scope with a Plexiglas plate that protects
scope and flight rail and Lumenok offered as option
for Horton arrows |
