Precision Shooting is recalling about 17,000 FANG XT, FANG LT, and THRIVE archery crossbows because they can fire or discharge unexpectedly. This defect creates a serious safety risk for both the user and bystanders. The manufacturer has received six reports of the crossbows firing without warning, though no injuries have been reported yet. These camouflage-patterned crossbows were sold at major retailers like Bass Pro Shops and Cabela's between October 2016 and August 2017.
The crossbow's firing mechanism can fail, causing the weapon to discharge an arrow unexpectedly without the trigger being pulled. This unexpected release poses a significant risk of puncture wounds or other serious physical injuries to anyone in the line of fire.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled crossbows and return them to Precision Shooting for a free repair.
