Is there anything i need to look out for

I would stay away from the cheap asian made xbows.
Plenty to choose from the lines of PSE ,Excalibur, Horton, Barnett just to name a few brands.
Buy quality bolts and broad heads then spin test them.
Just sold my last xbow (PSE Reaper) as shoulder can handle compound again. Been shooting 125gr NAP Thunderheads from it the last 5 years (am a fix blade kind of guy) as it was really accurate in that bow.
Am with sixtus on going with an older ,proven model.
