My hommade repeating crossbow
(pump-action)

I built the crossbows for use in role play,
(so it made for bolts with large buffer heads,)
but it can also be used with ordinary bolts.
Bow pressure is 30 pounds, which is max at LARP games

Starting point was an old crossbow as my father once built a long time ago, after drawings from popular mechanics

After some experiments !
I ended up having built virtually all parts differently
from the starting point.

The Crossbow are purposely built almost entirely of wood.
it would be easier to build it in iron
since it would then be more exactly,

there are 2 bolts holders:
one to 4 bolts and one for 10 bolts

To build a crossbow!
Several people have tried to build copies of this crossbow
most have not succeeded !
I have no drawings or photos!
But it is not necessary it is based on Trigger System
http://www.vintageprojects.com/archery/cross-bow-plans.html
with rotary magazine so there is room to buffer bolts.

I have built 5 kinds of crossbows all with a different principle, with different functions, for example one to use with one hand.
So there is no direction, it can be done in many ways
It is basically just a matter of good workmanship, drawings and photos will not help if you do not have the necessary skills.

if I build it today I'd build it completely different.

It's been years since I switched from shooting with crossbow to only shoot with a bow,
Today, I am convinced that you can shoot faster and better with a bow

  • or you could buy a gun

  • @manictiger if cross-bows are legal in your area, then I would imaging that any mods done to a crossbow would be legal also.

  • that group from 1:08 to 1:11 was actually pretty sweet. With some practice, you could consistently plug small game with this. I dig it.

  • Just go back maybe 1000+ years and ud be rich.

  • @Takashi0ukana Denmark

  • @saleen369 too mainstream

  • after what i can hear it's either in Denmark or sweden and if se illegal ;D

  • he looks like Iniesta xD

  • Stop talking about this crossbow is suck,this guy puts a lot of effort to make it.

    and like in the video said "for role play"

    At least the crossbow can shoot duh

  • a pistol grip on the cocking mechanism would allow for you to cock a higher poundage string

    that is very cool, so the origional plans were no good
