General discussions. Politics, scuttlebutt, whatever: you're getting married, changing jobs, got a gripe or a compliment, dying to get out with the bow etc.....

I think it may be illegal . This is just the type of crap the "cowboy" element of our sport will use and bring bowhunting into the limelight , yet again

PATHETIC!!!
It is bordering on the ridiculous and I agree that those things are possibly illegal.

That crap, and the accompanying description that goes with it is just despicable.
Hopefully I'm not the only one who has reported it to ebay
It will be interesting to see what they do...

If they aren't illegal they should be i reckon.
Why bother with a bow? Just take a Howitzer "hunting".
About the only thing that i can see getting blown up with those things is some kid's fingers. I hope they get removed real quick. (The item from Ebay i mean, not the fingers)

So, they don't explode as such but rather just let off a loud *bang* like a cap gun? I tried searching the net for more info but no luck.

The scariest part is that there is going to be someone out there with these things and could potentialy use them in far from safe manner.
Ebay should have pulled the listing ages ago. As I can't see how they could be legal.
I for one have emailed Ebay about them.
Bow Hunting is my Passion.
My wife says it's my Obsession.
Either way I'm happy.

Good to hear, maybe our emails did the trick
