The present invention relates to an arrow feeding device attached to a crossbow, and includes a feeding part having a path defined therethrough and communicating with the top end and the bottom end of the feeding part. The path includes a first for receiving the arrow head, a second area for receiving the shaft and the tail, and a third area for receiving an arrow nock. The third area includes a stepped portion on each of two sidewalls thereof. Each stepped portion defines the third area into a first section and a second section. The first section is wider than the second section. The first section includes two sidewalls and each sidewall of the first section includes a rib extending therefrom. The second sections and the ribs of the path form a three-point restriction to the tail of the arrow to prevent the arrow from being tilt.

In some embodiments, a crossbow comprises a stock, a bow portion, a latch, a trigger and a foregrip. In some embodiments, the foregrip is supported by the stock and arranged to move with respect to the stock between a first position and a second position.

A folding device for an archery weapon, in particular for a crossbow, includes a shaft connecting section, having two limbs, each of which has a free end and a shaft-side end pivotably mounted on the shaft connecting section, with two locking pawls, each of which is pivotably mounted on the shaft-side end of the shaft connecting section, which are each pivotably mounted on the shaft connecting section. The pawls are pivotably arranged in such a way that the limbs can each be secured in a closed position of the respective pawls for unfolding and/or clamping a bow and in an open position of the respective pawls the limbs are each released for folding.

An improved crossbow and improved bow and methods for shooting an arrow from such crossbow and how devices. The improved how comprises a pressure sensitive adhesive (PSA) tape on the rail or arrow rest, the surface the arrow slides over when released. The PSA tape provides a smooth surface for the arrow to glide over thereby reducing friction. This is an improved over prior art products such as rail lube or silicone products. The disclosure also comprises an improved method for shooting an arrow with a crossbow comprising PSA tape on the rail or arrow rest.

A firing system for a crossbow having an arrow rest extending along an arrow rest axis, the firing system having a right limb and a left limb, the right limb being pivotable about a right limb axis and the left limb being pivotable about a left limb axis, the firing system further including a right cam and a left cam, the right cam having a right bow string groove and being rotatable about a right cam axis, the left cam having a left bow string groove and being rotatable about a left cam axis, the firing system having a bow string extending between the right and left cams and extending within the right and left bow string grooves, the bow string positionable between an un-cocked condition and a cocked or full draw condition wherein movement of the bow string from the un-cocked condition toward the cocked condition moves the right and left cams toward each other and pivots the right and left limbs about the right and left limbs axes respectively, the firing system further including a power assembly having a power cable and a spring assembly, the power cable having a forward end operably joined to the right and left limbs and a rear end operably joined to the spring assembly, the spring assembly having a power spring extending along a power spring axis between a first spring end and a second spring end and having a central spring opening, the power spring being below the arrow rest, the power cable extending through the central spring opening from the first spring end toward the second spring end, the rear end of the power cable being operably joined relative to the second spring end of the power spring, moving the bow string from the un-cocked condition to the cocked condition causing the right and left limbs to the pull forward end of the power cable forwardly wherein the operable engagement with the second spring end compressing the power spring by pulling the second spring end toward the first spring end to produce the shooting force to propel the archery arrow.

A trigger-traverse crossbow. The crossbow has a trigger latch block slidingly connected to the flight track. The trigger latch block is configured to engage and retain the bowstring. A cocking mechanism is configured to draw the trigger latch block with the bowstring from an initial position near a forward end of the flight track to a cocked position. A one-way retention mechanism is configured to immobilize the trigger latch block against linear movement in a forward direction along the flight track. A trigger-traverse mechanism is configured to slide the trigger latch block in a forward direction to its initial position after the bowstring is released. In one embodiment, the cocking mechanism includes a cocking lever pivotally connected to the crossbow body along with one pair or two pairs of cocking hooks that move in response to the rotation of the cocking lever.
