  • Publication number: 20200300588
    Abstract: When combined with a variety of shafts of various lengths, this unit will create pistol crossbow bolts, crossbow bolts and archery arrows of various sizes used for recreational shooting, competition shooting, small game hunting and archery fishing. These bolts or arrows can be use with pistol crossbows, crossbows and archery bows or any other device used to project said projectiles. This seven and one half inch fletch unit is a solid one piece unit made of a strong but, light weight plastic compound. It has a NOCK to hold the bow string in place. It has two FLAT WINGS and a stabilizing TAIL which creates an accurate and stable bolt or arrow flight. No other fletch unit has flat wings with a tail. These features allow the bolt or arrow to be easily viewed in flight. This also allows this bolt or arrow to be used for competition shooting because these projectiles can be easily located, scored and then retrieved from any type competition target.

  • Patent number: 10209043
    Abstract: When combined with a metal point, this ten inch plastic pistol crossbow bolt is designed to extend past the barrel of a pistol crossbow so it can be used for recreational shooting, competition shooting, small game hunting, pistol crossbow fishing and pistol crossbow scuba fishing. The main fault of the standard bolt for a pistol crossbow is they are less than seven inches in length and do not extend past the end of a pistol crossbow barrel. Therefore, their use is limited to target points and recreational shooting only. Other faults of the standard short bolts are their high travel speed. They are very difficult to be viewed in flight, causing most bolts to be lost after one use. Also, their irretrievability from any commonly used target. Therefore, they cannot be found and scored in any type of shooting competition. This ten inch bolt is a solid one piece unit made of a strong but, light weight plastic compound. It has a NOCK to securely hold the bow string in place. Most bolts do not have a nock.
