In this video I review the desire rd pistol crossbow made by bear archery. or should I say, re badged with Bear Archery branding.
This video takes you through the initial unboxing to setting it up and firing it with a conclusion at the end.
You can purchase this crossbow from some retailers in the UK for £59 to £89. If you wish to purchase this pistol crossbow then I suggest you look around for the cheapest price from a retailer you know of.
Hunting with crossbows is banned in the U.K. and you need to be over the age of 18 to purchase this item.
This review is one of many I am going to be doing in the near future and my comments are totally my own and not influenced in any way.
I am not sponsored by anyone and I am doing this to share my findings to help others.
