The product, in the report: Excalibur Matrix 405 Crossbow
Hunting in Kansas my excalibur Matrix 405 accidentally discharged while on a hunting stand, the anti dry fire device stopped the arrow from being discharged. The following day while sitting on my stand, I heard the bow limb break (delaminate). It was returned to WOODY’S and both limbs were replaced. The accidental discharge problem was not disclosed or attended to and remains defective. I am concerned that I have a lemon here and am very displeased. I only got 2 days of hunting out of a 6 day hunt in Kansas, I am out of pocket a lot of money. Can I return this item for a cash refund. I once owned a [REDACTED] which served me well until I upgraded to this piece of crap.
