I don't think I would want to be the crash test dummy in that court case. Blowguns are prohib & pellet rifles over 500fps... breaks both those rules...

If you could mount that to a long bow, then you might have some interested people on this site.

When I was younger and My brothers and I would chase each other around with paintballs and slingshots, I started playing with the idea of making something similar for my recurve...cool Idea but it probably would have been difficult to make it past 16 had I gone through with it.

That being said...paintballs out of an x-bow???

That would be fun until someone insisted on playing against you during crossbow only games with their full auto deathmaker.

I wonder if the ball is less weight than a bolt. If so I wonder how long the limbs would last as it appears to me to be pretty close to a dry fire.

Good point. Like Bill said - .50 cal lead balls are weighing only 178 grains. That's way too light for a crossbow. Recipe for a disaster, unles that little teflon thingy weighs around 300 grains...

Did anyone look any further or just dead idea?
