    That's what I'm working on in my head, I want to beat what I'd be capable of using my arms and being the size I am thats a fairly big draw, I want to figure out how to ease the cocking method as much as possible as well.
    My work area ironically is a comandeered Ironing board that also gets the indoor range set up on it.

    Stocks on the bay, alright I'll have a look but even when I tried a sight before it had a full on fit.

    I'm making a cross bow like thing, using pulleys at the front, to get a really long power stroke, with elastic to the rear rather than a crossbow limb. That enables the elastic to be pre-tensioned as required, and still get a good draw length.
    Always looking for any cheap, interesting, knackered "project" guns. Thanks, JB.
