Junk danger beware folks don't listen to the fan boy kooks they and killer instinct have mega issues but they will all blame me banned me on crossbow nation for trying to keep people out of harms way this is a sick crowd of people
 
I can tell ya it is not the limbs fault , it is the limb pockets !!!!!
They are trying to bend a limb around a square corner and no limb rocker ,CHEAP ,CHEAP, CHEAP !!!!
I know this for fact as i have ruined a few sets of limbs with the same set up i tried on one of my home built bows . I milled in limb rockers and i have not spit a limb yet !!!!
That limb needs to bend on a radius rather than a square edge .
 
Before anyone buys a killer instinct crossbow please join some Facebook pages and see the never ending killer instinct bows blowing and other major issues.. Sombody is going to get seriously injured by one. They are made in tawain and are extremely dangerous. Every day people post pics and stories of nightmares. It's gone on for a year now. This post will probably be taken down or attacked by killer instinct fan boys. These are bad actors who will do anything to suppress anything bad about killer instinct issues.. It's realy insane no crossbow brand ever has so many blow ups.. People have to know

Killer Instinct does have some issues but not to the degree your making it out to be. And actually if you want the brass tacks, Barnett IMHO having worked on most crossbows has a higher repair rate than Any crossbow today.
 
Here we set as hunters it's here or coming soon. The most active part of deer season. And we have hunters bows shot down. Always remember if you saving a lot of money so did the guys making what your buying.
 
Not doubting the examples you are posting, and I knew I would hold off getting a SWAT XP to see how they held up. Curious about the strong motivation, and that the mods are allowing a thread like this to keep going. Perhaps KI isn’t a sponsor, so they are fair game?

This tunahunter guy is Blizzy on Crossbow Nation.
 
This clown has an agenda for whatever reason. ALL bows have limbs break.
He may be a clown, and I'm no Fanboy of anything. But I recommended five different friends to buy ripper 415 and all five have had limbs crack while cocked. I will admit their customer service was remarkable I had an 8-day turnaround and they sent new front ends but still there should be a recall on the 415 rippers with the original manufacturer of those limbs

kI gets them made so cheap their current business model is replace the front ends with gambling that they don't break again. Other than that they have done absolutely nothing to address the problem.

Am I banned? Should I look and see how many killer instinct crossbows blew up today... Nahhh I'll wait till Sunday be a half dozen more blown up killer instinct crossbows people posted on social media blown up... They are pure garbage...please be careful if you own one do not let anyone you love anywhere close to one of these pieces of garbage
 
Really not sure what to make of this. But you can't really refute the images. I looked at them closely and they all seem to be different limb breaks. That's a concerning amount of breaks. Is this a specific model? I couldn't see the Ripper 415 model for a while on the website, maybe it was discontinued. I always was wondering why such fast crossbows seemed to be so affordable. I still love their scopes however, I have three of them. I don't really see how this can be up for discussion, it's pretty unreasonable to assume they're fake.
 
All my buddies that had the 415 ripper it was only when the bow was cocked actually sitting in their ground blind on a field pod they would hear some cracking first and then eventually it would just collapse it wasn't like it blew up.
