The Ravin R18 is the first ever takedown-style crossbow, and it’s taken traditional crossbow design and changed it yet again. It accomplishes this by using the new VertiCoil Cam System to compact a full-power crossbow into a platform size much smaller than others. The HeliCoil Technology literally helps crank this bow, and the limbs of the R18 expand vertically instead of horizontally. The system rotates the R18’s ultra-small cams 720 degrees, wrapping the crossbow string and cables around the cam and cam axle, resulting in an astounding axle-to-axle height of just 1.3 inches when cocked or 4.1 inches uncocked. Unlike any other crossbow in history, the takedown-style R18 is only 4.75 inches wide and 18 inches long without its detachable stock configuration. This crossbow also features a detachable stock with an integrated removable quiver system, built-in cocking mechanism for an easy draw, anti-dry fire/auto safety and built-in sling mounts. Inside the box contains the new Ravin 3-Dot Reflex Sight for easy target acquisition, three 350-grain, 16-inch R18 arrows with field points, and a removable draw handle.
