    Greg your Mini crossbow just arrived.......I hope Mike is prepared to lose an eye. Mine launches these things across the room. I'll drop by when I get a free second, been super busy at work.

    Got mine last week but haven't fired it yet. Believe it or not there's not one toothpick to be had in the house. Strike anywhere matches are too thick or they'd make great incendiary rounds.

    My two look just like Engine 4's. And they come with a pack of toothpicks. I was messing around and it friggin shot right through a paper bag. Wicked cool. Was like Ikea no directions to put together. Engine4 does you crossbow bow down or up? I have mine where to curve if it were straight is down ( the half moon shape is down so looks like a smiley). Seems to shoot better that way

    There's a small slot on the bow, that goes where the toothpick slides out.

    Right. The bow itself has a straight edge and the other edge is curved. Top and bottom on your pic. Is your curved edge on the bottom or top?

    Nevermind. I see mine is like yours. The straight edge is on top. I see it in your pic. The slight curved edge is on the bottom

    Ordered one on July 18th. The Chinese Govt. has shut the sell of these things down due to many complaints from concerned parents. They were selling them mainly to children and were very popular. The police has raided stores and confiscated those on the shelf. Ebay says mine made the cutoff and has been mailed, but it hasn't arrived yet. Maybe it'll show up, maybe it won't. No big deal since it only cost me $6.78.
