Crosman introduces Pioneer Airbow
Hunters who enjoy the varied experiences that come with rifles, bows and crossbows will instantly gravitate to the new Benjamin Pioneer Airbow by Crosman Corporation—for its power, convenience and flexibility. Filled to 3000 PSI and firing full sized arrows, the integrated pressure regulator delivers eight consistent full power shots at 450 feet per second. The convenience of a trigger firing mechanism, top cocking lever with only two pounds of cocking force and compact profile means anyone, regardless of size or strength, can handle the Pioneer. With no cocking rope to lose or tangle, the Pioneer Airbow is especially safe for treestand use. Arrows from the Pioneer stabilize quickly, giving shooters an expanded kill range for any game animal. The Airbow features a cocking lever that can be operated with only two fingers and decocking is just as easy. Its accuracy is not affected by canting and it does not require the complex maintenance of crossbows. Simply put, the Pioneer Airbow enhances everything. Jim Shockey took an 1800-pound bison with the powerful Benjamin Pioneer Airbow. It will be available at retail in Spring 2016 with an MSRP of $849.
