The idea is actually simple and was inspired by the back view of the TAC15's sliding trigger mech carriage.there is a finger in the back to which the cord attaches and it slides in a raised position all the way to the trigger housing with the rail preventing it from collapsing and releasing the string.and once the bow is drawn and the carriage returns to the trigger housing it becomes engaged with the trigger mechanism.the trigger system is not the conventional sear type, but similar to the one used on Twinbow(speaking of which.I haven't added that one here yet ).sort of like the release on for compound bows.as they call it the dog-leg system.Īlso sticking to my promise about those lever diagrams.starting with the goats-foot lever charts. But the idea of a moving trigger assembly has been a fascinating topic spinning in my head from the moment I found out about it.I have a few ideas on the subject, but recently lost all my models with(computer crashed) I'll need to redo some models that were not backed up, so it's going to be in words for now. 22 cal which was made so silent that shooting it sounded just as quite as a crossbow(if not quieter). Thanks for looking it up and the pic quality is just fine.I also agree on the silenced guns being more available especially the. I also have this one book with a nice crossbow lever section in it.I'll take a few diagrams from there will be back with them tomorrow. There was this topic on where a guy modified his crossbow to be used with a lever(only it wasn't commando lever): I don't recall ever hearing of an American crossbow with a moving trigger mech.the only two that I do know of is the Russian and PSE TAC15.the rest are old bullet bows where trigger mech is a part of the spanning lever.Īs for short draw.well I guess that's the thing with levers.thou some compositions are better than others, but the base principal remains. The Russian crossbow has a flaw in it and it's the "no gap" for the arrow fletching leaving only two fletch arrows to be used.I tried to get around that part by usign a rail-less design in my model. Thou a lever would certainly make for a more tactical crossbow given you can be siting in a tree or walking in the swamp up to your chest in crap and still be able to span your crossbow when a stirrup would be impossible to use. Thank you for the pictures.I also hear stories of Russian/American Special forces using crossbows in the time of war, but finding pictures turned out to be a waste of time for me.the Russian crossbow SF stories were told by Americans and American Crossbow SF stories were told by Russians and they didn't strike me as very convincing stories. I've been gathering some ideas around the net(mostly crossbow enthusiast ideas) like pressing all composite stocks or rolling your own composite tubes(as used in model rocket clubs) and then connecting them with cast aluminum joints.lots of interesting stuff and all in the name of evolution of the way how did you like the lever on "Струна" ? I have that one planned to be used in my little ninja crossbow that I have planned for the future.
There are many unique solutions in when it comes to levers in crossbows.I'm anctious to hear more I'm also interested in hearing more about your experience in an attempt to replicate this design.if you still have that project and don't mind posting a few pictures/diagrams it would be awesome. All in all it's a beautiful place.and If some one asked me where to go this Spring.I'd say Ireland.no joke!Ī fellow crossbow builder here(Zmeelink) actually used this lever in one of his builds with great success.I thought I was going to drop a tear when I saw it for the first time.simply beautiful and so unique! Perhaps he will stop by this topic some day and post a few pictures of his 's amazing I tell you! I'm not from Ireland myself(Ukranian), but I've been there when a little ayed golf with the local girls(some pretty ladies you guys have there).I wish I remembered the names of cities I visited.I was just beginning to learn english then and my brain was toast before I even got off the plane. » need help contacting le musee Dauphinois GrenobleĪbove the fact that we share the affection towards the commando crossbow lever you are also from Ireland. » Skane/Lillohus lockbow information needed » 400lb Windlass crossbow bolts weight and accuracy shooting high. » prod angle, and lever trigger for sale anyone? » Questions around heavy crossbow lath buildin » Colletiere a Charavines continuing experiment
