Abstract: An arrow for a bow or crossbow whose point is fitted with a capsule that can be pushed on before shooting. When the arrow is pulled out of a solid object, the capsule remains stuck in the object so that the arrow can be reused again undamaged. A hemispherical shaped flight stabilizer as viewed from the front is mounted on the forward area of a hunting point. During flight, the influence of side winds on the arrow is eliminated and thus an accurate shot is always made possible. The flight stabilizer consists of a material that can be easily destroyed when it strikes the target and is preferably in the form of a sphere that can have indentations on its surface. The shaft of a crossbow dr bow is fitted with members easily reached by the shooter, so that the point of is the arrow can be inserted exactly into the center of the spherical flight stabilizer.

Abstract: An arrow for a crossbow is constructed so that it is particularly rigid and allows for an interchange of different arrow heads while exhibiting the same aerodynamic characteristics. The shaft of the arrow comprises two tubes: an interior tube which is received within an exterior tube; the exterior tube extends beyond the interior tube at the front end of the arrow, and the interior tube extends beyond the exterior tube at the rear end of the arrow. The arrow head includes a shaft which is adapted to seat within the exterior tube at the front of the arrow. The arrow is provided with a tail unit which includes a tubular element which is adapted to be received over the interior tube at the rear of the arrow. This prevents the arrow head from widening the shaft on impact, and allows the tail unit to slide off as the arrow penetrates a target.

Abstract: The invention relates to a crossbow for the shooting of arrows, bolts, harpoons or for narcoticizing purposes with rigid propelling arms, wherein a spring assembly centrally arranged in the base frame is tensioned by tensioning members and wherein the triggering device is indirectly released with a low expenditure of force by a bolt prestressed against a spring force.
