Cross Bows are cool, but i wouldn't consider it a " Bow "
Its a gun that shots bolts. They are cool, my hunting buddy's friend has one. We fired it acouple of times at a rottin log . Have you ever considered buying a Bow Troop ? you can get a good used Bow for around $ 150.00
Maybe even less if you find a sweet deal from someone that just wants to get rid of it .

ya i bought my green one there for 100 bucks only im stupid cuz its the wrong hand haha but i use it anyway lol and my orange one was 25 bucks and a garage sale lol it just needed a new string and it came with a case,arrows, and arrow parts so just look around or you can always make one and for the cross bow in canada though im not 100% but to own a crossbow in canada your FAC has to say that your allowed to have one like for me im not allowed to own one because my FAC only says none restricted on it thats the course i took so even to get a handgun i have to take the restricted course or at least the test and again if i want a crossbow i yet again have to take that test to unless the restricted will let you have a cross bow.
sorry if i confused people lol

Here in Iowa to hunt with a crossbow you have to be unable to shoot a regular gun.

In Indiana, you can get a crossbow permit if you can't shoot a BOW because of a disability. Dad had a permit.

I should have been more clear. You can get a permit to hunt deer or other animals with a crossbow if you are disabled and can't use a standard bow. You are also permitted here to hunt from a vehicle if disabled as well. There is no permit system for simply owning a crossbow.
