I bought a Barnett with broken limbs for $25, took it to them and explained I bought it this way. They took it to the back and because it was late Friday asked me to return Monday to pick it up, which I did. Monday comes and they had upgraded the safety/trigger, replaced limbs, string and gave me 3 arrows along with some rail lube. I asked my total repair cost expecting it to be pricey and as ou guessed no charge, they claimed it was under warranty and this was a Wildcat about 25 years old. Amazing to me they did this knowing I paid $25 for it in that condition and without second thought they put all that I to it. Nobody provides service like that anymore that I know of.

Crock
Was reading if your using a arrow under 400 grain total it acts like it is dry firing . But not sure.

Basically brand new except for the stock for $35. They replaced everything on my dads old CB that I sold to a buddy, and he blew it apart for $35. For us in Fla it is great because you can drive to the factory and get it worked on
My buddy has had a Horton, and now a Stryker (made by Bowtech). Based on the issues he has had with both of them, you couldn't give me one of either of them. He has had to drive from camp to Tampa 2 years in a row the day before season opens because the exact same thing broke
never had one problem with my Horton. liked it a lot. went to the Barnett predator this season. May get rid of it after season. its a nice xbow but I just don't like the length of it and kinda heavy. also Horton went out of business and was bought by ten point
Be polite, be professional, BUT have a plan to kill everybody you meet

I hope folks that love their Horton xbows never have an issue. What I am hearing, from multiple places, is Ten Point is telling Horton owners they don't honor the Horton service warranties and to go check ebay or craigslist for parts. If that's true, I hope Ten Point goes out of business with their belly up
