 Welcome to the Arowblaste Crossbow!

This state-of-the-sixteenth-century weapon can deliver suppressive fire at ranges in excess of 100 yards, and can launch iron-tipped Bolts that will zip through Moorish chain mail just like in the Dark Ages. Its authentic Medieval design is enhanced by the use of advanced alloys, modern engineering materials, and select hardwoods. Its rubbed oil finish accentuates the natural beauty of the hand carved Tiller, and offers increased resistance to wear and moisture. Whether your preference is hunting game, fighting in the Crusades, or competing in Royal Rounds, the time-proven design and attention to detail that go into our Arowblaste Crossbow can provide you with years of shooting pleasure.

The Arowblaste Crossbow is patterned after a style of crossbow that could be found throughout much of Central Europe from 1350 to 1600. Contact us about our Custom Arowblaste Crossbow if you would prefer a unique bow that reflects the distinctive style of a specific time and place.

* Figures shown are approximate. It is important to know when you compare crossbows that there are two popular ways to approximate bolt energy, and that they give two wildly different answers. Both methods are shown here. Know which equation was used to write the rules before choosing a bow for competition.

The Arowblaste Custom Crossbow:

All Arowblaste Crossbows are made with the same regard to quality, and the natural variations in the distinctive hardwood tillers already makes each one unique, but that is not always enough; we know. Contact us, and Freegate Armory will offer suggestions on how we can make an Arowblaste Custom Crossbow to your special requirements!
