AR-15 “Assault” Crossbow upper: PSE TAC 15
Words fail me. First there was the blackpowder AR, then the Chainsaw AR …

I think this finally ends the 5.56mm vs. 6.8mm vs. 7.62mm debate. Clearly a 425 grain bolt beats them all!
Actually “tactical” crossbows have been around for a long time. Special forces were known to use them as weapons or as zip line launchers. I would be surprised if they are still in use as weapons.

I’m going to buy this and replace the AR I traded for a Honda Goldwing. Looking at the 6.5 by Stag. I must have the Tac-15 with this, as my dad needs something like this to hunt with. I bought a new bow last year and would love to be out there with him hunting, this will give him that chance. It really looks like a lot of fun to shoot. I will shoot it in the muzzel season as well, I never liked black powder. This wiil put me in that season with something that will have my hunting camp talking all year. I can’n wait I’m grabbing my check book.
