KODABOW Introduces Mechanical Cocking "Koda-Crank"
West Chester, PA - KODABOW introduced a Koda-Crank mechanical cocking accessory during the Archery Trade Association Trade Show held in Columbus, Ohio during 10-12 January, 2012. The Koda-Crank weighs 1 pound, fits all of the Kodabow Crossbow models and allows a shooter to cock a Kodabow with minimal effort using a wrench or battery powered driver unit. The suggested retail price is $159.99.
The Koda-Crank is constructed of high strength machined aluminum and other high strength materials. This unit gives the shooter the ability to cock a crossbow without using a manual cocking rope. "This opens up hunting and shooting possibilities to anyone who has reduced arm strength and desires an extremely durable cocking mechanism that will cock a crossbow accurately every time" said Chuck Matasic, Kodabow President. Matasic stated, "We have had extremely high interest in the Koda-Crank accessory and look forward to shipping units to the hunters waiting for this Kodabow development. Kodabow crossbows are a favorite for physically challenged shooters because of the mid-point balance of the crossbow. We found many shooters select our crossbow based on our trigger performance. Very often, if a hunter has reduced arm strength, there is exceptional value in a trigger that is smooth and breaks cleanly so the Koda-Crank finishes off the total requirement in this area."
Kodabow crossbows have a safety system that automatically engages when cocking and the crossbow will not shoot in a dry-fire mode. An arrow must be placed within the trigger group to deactivate the patented Anti-Dry Fire System. The crossbow is offered in 5 different limb weights from 125 lb to 225 lb with the 185 lb. Koda-Express, the 200 lb. Bravo Zulu and the 225 lb. Big Rhino as the most popular choices. The crossbows utilize a proprietary "dual limb" recurve design giving the user the freedom to change the crossbow string in the field if required in minutes using a Destringing Aid supplied with every crossbow. This crossbow is manufactured in the USA with a majority of the components produced right in Pennsylvania where the company is located.

Wixom, MI — The family-owned company best known for supplying the U.S. military with the finest battle optics in the world is reconfirming its commitment to American sportsmen with its ACOG®Crossbow Scope. As more state game agencies recognize crossbows as legal arms for archery seasons, crossbow hunters now have a top-quality Trijicon scope for the ultimate in accuracy and precision shot placement.
The 3-power, 24 mm objective ACOG Crossbow Scope is modeled after the legendary ACOG (Advanced Combat Optical Gunsight) and includes features such as fully multi-coated optics, precise adjustments, Tritium-and-fiber-optic illuminated reticle, and unmatched, battle-proven durability. In addition, the Crossbow Scope contains a specially designed range-finding reticle calibrated for crossbow ballistics.

Reticle XB1 accommodates speeds from 300-340 fps, XB2 from 340-400 fps, while XB3 accommodates speeds of 400-450. Once the proper model is chosen and zeroed so the glowing chevron is point-of-impact at 30 yards, shooters simply hold on the corresponding crosshair for pinpoint accuracy out to 80 yards in 5-yard increments.
