While looking at
www.larpspace.com
, I found a guy who makes his own crowsbows.

I asked him for the specs and the response I got was...
while the range still tends to be variable, it is roughly 20-30 feet(fairly accurately) can be volleyed up to 50, and can be shot very accurately for about 15-20 (8-in-10)
the poundage has been extimated to be approximately 15, and hits with about the force of a standard larp bow.
has been accepted for Live effects, Realms of Conflict, Dagorhir, and Belegarth.
they come in a $100 package, which includes the bow, 12 bolts, a quiver, and a belt holster for the bow.
I will see about if I can get my hands on 1 to check it out and if it is a viable, decent make... then we may have a new crossbow supplier. Though, I will admit I dislike the design of the "bolts" he is using... but that's just a personal thing with me.
