www.replicaairguns.com Type: Compact Recurve Crossbow. Manufacturer: CenterPoint. Model: CenterPoint Hornet. Materials: Fiberglass, metal & plastic. Weight: 2.25 pounds (1 kilograms). Length: 22-24 inches. Propulsion: Recurve Bow. Action: Single action trigger. Ammunition Type: Aluminum bolts (Comes with 3x 146 grain). Ammunition Capacity: 1. FPS: 191fps. Draw weight: 80 pounds. Interestingly the CenterPoint Hornet Recurve Compact Crossbow has a higher claimed velocity over the Bear X Desire XL Crossbow I tested a while back, yet the Bear X Desire XL Crossbow actually shot a bit faster hitting 190+ fps, not a huge difference but an interesting observation. The CenterPoint Hornet Recurve Compact Crossbow does come with a red dot but both have Picatinny Rails so Red Dots will fit on both Crossbows no problem. I am going to address the elephant in the room, if you compare both of these Crossbows they are virtually the same with the exception of the branding and distribution of them. So I would say get either one, the Bear X Desire XL Crossbow is actually less money as it does not come with an included Red Dot but at least right now it is out of stock so your only option may the the CenterPoint Hornet Recurve Compact Crossbow, both are a lot of fun and pack a lot more punch than your standard non regulated Air Rifle.
