ABSTRACT:
The crossbow is disclosed herein having an elongated stock with a pistol grip handle at one end and a bow carried on the other end. The entire specific bow portion of the crossbow is movably attached to the stock by a pivot or hinge mechanism which includes a releasable latch for securing the bow in a fixed, operable position. A bow string pull-back or cocking mechanism includes a rotatable shaft having a catch at one end for selectively engaging and disengaging the bow string. Said shaft has a finger pull-back grip at its other end which includes a V-shaped portion constituting a sight for aiming of the arrow to be shot. A trigger mechanism is operably carried on the stock adjacent the pistol grip handle which includes a safety lock mechanism selectively disposed to prevent activation of the trigger mechanism when engaged therewith.
