Introduction
Sometimes living in a place where people come
for vacations has its rewards. During a sunny
July week the CEO of Armcross, Thomas Kahlhardt,
came to Italy for a few days off on the Lago
Maggiore, luckily for us he came bringing along
a few LeoPro crossbow samples to show to its
sales partners. We have been able to take him
back to business for a day in order to be able
to write this review: thanks Thomas!.
We got
to know the LeoPro from several trade shows
(ATA, IWA) and during our recent tour at the
Armcross factory (report here). But until now we
did not push it through our regular test
procedure.
This crossbow is truly amazing as it
blends design with revolutionary layout.
Shocking as it may be because of its shape (the
limb/riser setup is completely inverted) it is
not until you handle that you realize how
radically different it is. This is poised to
become the new benchmark for all the rest. Bear
with me and let’ see why.
