The "Siege" Crossbow - Crazy Complete Review! 

LOL.. where you going??? I just want to show you its features!!

I agree with you very much,

same thought haha

I dont practice, shoots every crossbow for youtube.

that's why he says "instant Legolas" 🤣

Santa Jeorg: You'll shoot your eye out kid, so instead I'll get you my Legolini perfect for a little boy like you!

I’m going to be really good❣️

Ho ho ho ✌️

Dang it. What would be considered "little"?

@@midgetman4206 Compared to Joerg, most people.

Not with modern products. I just watched Scotty kilmer totally destroy German engineered reputation, as the car was designed to fail and be throwaway.

@@JohnDoe-ip3oq ​ @John Doe Watch Kilmer and get what you deserve. My intent was merely to compliment Mr. Sprave, not to start a xenophobic debate.

@@JohnDoe-ip3oq And you're an example of why Americans are often called stupid in the international community.

Same in uk, German engineering is top notch!

Maybe in the 20 century now they run around in rainbow skirts and the strictest gun laws. Straight crap

If only it could fire crossbow Volts!

@@gerryjamesedwards1227 You mean long bolts? It literally can. People have made long bolt magazines. The bolts are exposed but they dont move because of the top spring arm. The reason he didnt go ahead with his version is because he likes to build the upmost quality stuff. So his magazine was too heavy and cumbersome.

I just got an email from a us maker offering the magazine for July 2022

without a magizine it is worthless there are several of near 300fps crossbows at a simular price some that throw a heavier arrow at that speed

@@CheZfrmdaWestWisc But they still require rope or crank cocking, and not the lever cocking (and decocking mind you)

@@Rikcey true but the magizine is what elevates this product the lever action is amazing to but it really comes into it's own with the magizine.

everyone in the UK is a Zombie

You think this can drop an elk at 50 meters?

I have to disagree. The performance of this bow is nothing at all like a Ravin or similar bow, not even in the same class. I don't own a Ravin, but I do own a Tenpoint NXT400, and it will generate these same speeds(mine chronos at a consistent 408 fps) with a 400 grain projectile, generating well over 140ft-lbs of KE. For the cobra to get that speed, he has to use a projectile of barely 1/3 that weight(139 grains) that he stated in this video, were much too light for the bow, and potentially dangerous. To be clear, this is an amazing bow, but it's not a hunting bow by any means if ethical, clean kills(which should always be paramount), are to be considered.

@@danielsimchuk7562 No way, at least not ethically. This bow is generating those speeds using an ultralight projectile(139 gr) that has only a fraction of the KE needed on something like an elk, or even a deer. I can get the same speed out of my bow using a 400 grain projectile generating about 3 times as much KE. If you are in an area where crossbows are legal for big game, please consider one of the hunting class crossbows from someone like Tenpoint, Ravin, or Excaliber. Performance and quality will be on another level entirely.

@@NightwingGR1 Yes we all know that the Cobra crossbows have nothing on the Ravin for speed, distance and power as the Ravin and Ten-point and a whole lot of others. But the average person can't be bothered buying a 3000 Ravin500e or Ten-point Seige to name a few. They take forever to load, they're too heavy and needing winches or cranks like the dinosaur years. And for that sort of money you're better off with high powered rifles. The Cobra Seige bridges the gap a bit more so far as Speed, distance and power. Yet the Cobra Seige with a 7 shot Magazine is only $750 and heightens your chance of self defence. Easy to use, cocking etc. The Seige doesn't need all that extra power, speed and distance like the ones you've mentioned. I can afford all the ones you've mentioned as high powered crossbows. I personally choose a very Tactical, versatile, mobile and greater value for money crossbow any day. Tactical and very affordable crossbows are on the rise and will only get better.

@@NightwingGR1 I'm not a hunter so excuse me if I'm mistaken, but it's draw weight is above the legal minimum draw weight for big game hunting in almost all states and 150-175 is what many hunting sites recommend for hunting elk. I get more is generally better (although sombre states have legal limits) but is there some other aspect this is missing?

a reverse compound version would be cool

😅

It's coming, for sure!

you dont need spin stbleisation if you allready have the veins, you cant stabilise somthing that is allready stable. it just doesnt make sense

Exactly. Several comments here have stated that this has the "same performance" as hunting bows. It does not, it's not even close. I shoot a Tenpoint NXT400 that generates about the same speed(mine chronos 408 fps). BUT...it's doing so with an arrow nearly 3 times as heavy, at 400 grains, generating over 140 ft-lbs of energy. The bow in this video would have problems with penetration on a larger animal at any distance at all, as in no case did the Ft-lbs of energy even approach that of modern hunting crossbows(in no case, even with the 1000 gr plus steel bolt, did it generate even HALF the energy of my bow). Not to knock this, it's a very cool bow...but it's NOT a hunting bow.

Well yeah... 180lbs is quite heavy to carry around ;)

Reverse draw? Can you explain? Cheers

@@Meloncholymadness a reverse draw is when the limbs are backwards facing away from you And this design eliminates brace height shortening the entire bow. Also you gain efficiency due to the string angle decreasing. Scorpyd makes good reverse draw crossbows.

I thought this too. Getting the slide to reach the string with the cocking lever in a reverse limb is probably the challenge. I’m a little shocked that the foot pound is so low. Needs a larger draw or better cams.

@@CodyFIHS needs better cams for sure they should use cam technology from regular compound bows you get way more efficiency with them.

@@archery.customs I suppose there wasn’t enough in the profitability to improve anything but the power they left on the table hurts. I would instantly buy for the $600 USD if it reached 100ft lb

Yes the Clip reloadable magazine allows for the Adder to use the 15 inch bolts. Keeping in mind too that the Adder is faster and more powerful than the Cold steel cheap shot although both have the same draw weight of 130Lbs. I know the Seige shoots bolts faster, further and more than twice the power of the Adder, but I haven't seen the Seige with Magazine cocked as fast and frequently as the Adder. I own an adder and my crowd just find the speed and power of the Adder to be scary with some serious shock value.

The bipod, at least, looks like it could be changed for a better one, or just removed entirely.

@@MonkeyJedi99 It can defiantly be removed, as I've seen people using it without the bipod. Whether it's an attachment that can be used for other bipods I'm not sure, I'll look into that when I get mine.

@@MonkeyJedi99 Got mine today and to confirm, yes, it's easy to remove/reattach without tools and works/looks fine without it, but it's specifically shaped to fit the front so I doubt you'll find another to fit unless they make one as an extra. The foregrip however is on a standard picatinny rail, so no reason you couldn't swap that out for a bipod, or maybe a foregrip/bipod combo would be good.

@@MrEsphoenix Thanks for your review! Very helpful.

There are possibly liability issues with selling them, considering the crossbows really aren't made to shoot them. Not sure how flexible the whole "use at own risk" is with this kinda stuff.

@ Joerg: Where did you learn your English?👍

Watch the video to the end!

@@Slingshotchannel ah my bad! Didn’t catch it, awesome!!

What about some modern armour? Like your under attach from Zombies or Raiders after your supplies.

I was wondering how come no one pointed out that the 2 vane arrows drifting to the right is exactly what 3 vanes is meant to prevent.

To be fair, the Mag kind of loses it's need at longer ranges. Seems it would be more use for closer range stuff.

No plans to bring a double stacked mag, too time intensive to load and those cheap third party bolts would probably jam in it.

@@Slingshotchannel We can only hope someone will release the blueprints for a 3d printer, then. Long loading time are not a problem, if one bought the Adder for an home defense situation - he would just keep the loader fully loaded.
