Somebody must have forgotten to tell the Barnett engineers that a crossbow is supposed to be heavy, bulky and uncomfortable to shoot. Barnett is breaking all those rules with its flagship RAZR and RAZR ICE crossbows. Never before has so much speed and accuracy been packaged in a crossbow that is a joy to shoot and take to the field.
The RAZR starts with one of the most powerful and advanced arrow delivery systems. The RAZR’s Reverse Cam Technology, powered by Barnett’s exclusive CROSSWIRE® string and cable system, produce blazing 400 feet-per-second arrow speed.
But what really sets this crossbow apart is its comfort.
Barnett’s patented Carbon Riser Technology reduces the RAZR’s riser weight by 43 percent. A lighter riser means less front-end weight, which promotes a steadier hold and more accuracy in the field.
Another accuracy-enhancing feature is the retractable under-arm support built into the buttstock. If a freehand shot is required, simply flip open the under-arm support and shoulder the crossbow as usual. The support dramatically steadies the front end by leveraging weight next to the shooter for unheard-of accuracy.
Overall weight was another issue the engineers wanted to tackle, so they made the RAZR’s stock from carbon and titanium, two of the best strength-to-weight materials on the planet. The result is a rugged crossbow that weighs just 6.5 pounds for all-day carrying and hunting comfort. The stock also features an adjustable buttpad to provide a custom fit, and it even has an integrated skinning knife built in.
The Razr and Razr Ice are powered with TriggerTech Technology. The TriggerTech system provides Frictionless Release Technology™, a patented free-floating roller that sits between the sear and the trigger. The roller eliminates sliding friction that causes creep and heavy pull-weights. FRT™ increases your accuracy by providing an instant zero-creep release.
Finally, the Razr and Razr Ice sport Barnett’s patent pending Bristle Retainer. The Bristle Retainer is a noticeable upgrade over standard arrow retainers found on most crossbows. It provides a solid and durable retainer system that is user friendly both at the range and in the field. With it, users can be confident that the arrow is properly seated and ready for the next shot.
Safety features include an anti-dry fire trigger safety, finger reminders and a pass-through foregrip.
You’ll get tight groups when shooting the RAZR, aided in part by the Microflight track insert that reduces friction, increases speed and centers the bolt for consistency. A string suppressor system reduces shot noise and vibration.
The RAZR comes complete with a premium illuminated scope, a rope cocking device, a Cross premium quiver and three 22″ Headhunter arrows. Simply sight it in, screw in your broadheads and you’re ready to go hunting.
