Steambow, I am a huge fan of your excellent products and would like to congratulate you on the development of the M10 magazine and the stinger II platform. My wallet is struggling to keep up with all these products! I currently have a 55lb Compact, a 90lb Tactical with red dot and a 120lb Survival with a VictOptics 2-6 x 32 scope, they are all absolutely brilliant. Thank you and keep the product releases coming!
I'm more of an EK Archery / GoGun fan, but have to say I really do like how modular the Steambow stuff is and the M10 looks really nice. It's tempting. But so expensive.
I can tell you from experience that the AR6 Stinger II is far superior in accuracy and quality, but it is more expensive. The platform is also constantly being developed
Very nice upgrade, certainly a major improvement over the old one. My budget can't keep up with upgrades so I'm gonna have to wait for a future full version that has everything included by default. One thing I think the video did touch on was how the arrow transfers from the magazine to the rail - is it through gravity or spring? Is rapid fire possible? Another question is if I've placed the magazine onto the weapon and then pull it out with arrows still in the magazine, then what happens to the arrow that was already transferred from the magazine to the rail? Is anything holding it in place if the magazine isn't there? One downside is that unlike the original, the magazine doesn't have a side window to see how full its loaded, so there isn't an easy way to know at a glance how much ammo is left in the mag... The rest of the features are excellent though!
I can almost certainly see the M10 being present on future lunar and Martian colony and research expeditions. A few for the security personnel and another couple in storage for others who know how to use them.
I hope by 2030, battery technology would have improved enough for the release of the version which uses electromagnetic propulsion, sending a steel bolt at adjustable power levels up to Mach 3 with a high capacity lithium or salt battery pack. The next step for ballistic weapon innovation would be railguns. Like bows, very difficult for antiweapon legislators to restrict due to ease of construction. No combustion, no pressure components.
Hoping you can also invent a 6 bolt magazine for those who want a minimalist design/same design as AR6. and this 6 round magazine that i am suggesting, will fit glock magazine pouch :)
Hello Gerald, I'm a user of the Stinger II platform. Have been tuning it with many Steambow extras. I have some questions about the M10. 1 - Can you unload the bolts out of magazine once you have it loaded? Let's say, you've got a broadhead bolt in by mistake, so you want to take it out before shooting the crossbow. 2 - how does the accuracy of the M10 compares to the standard Stinger II stackable magazine? 3 - Does jam occurs or can occur on this platform? Did jams happened during your tests for the final version of the product? 4 - Does the manual safety engages automatically when you cock the crossbow? If so, can you deactivate it if you opted for no safety? Regards from the UK
@axistec I would just love to hear guys from the UK like the Weapon Collector and MilitaryHistroy2011 say our RedBack/TomCat II can't compete. I got much respect for you mate.
Is it possible to buy AR 6 Stinger II with this upper already installed? Let me rephrase: I don't like the "old" upper much (the old magazine system), so I would just like to buy the M10 upper with the AR6 Stinger II lower...
Not a toy. My 35 lb limbs go up to the rubber vanes in my arrow targets. I have yet to install my 55 lb limbs. They are legal for hunting deer. Guys have killed boars with these. Plus the penetrate soft body armor well above bullets. If you use their carbon bodkin arrows they are deep penetration.
Absolutely not toys and yes, even the compact with 35lb limbs would be potentially fatal. Eric from fletched evolution tested all the limbs on a rack of ribs. I have a Stinger II Survival with 120lb limbs and a Tactical with the 90lb and they are great fun to use and extremely powerful.
@@Steven-jn2cw I bet. I'm only doing 55 lbs. Those stronger limbs scare the shit out of me. One German guy dry fired the 35 lb limbs with no breakage. This company said if a dry fire occurs it will break the plastic arrow tips instead of the bow. Not sure if that would occur with your higher lb limbs.
@@shaynehawkins713 the 90, 120 and 150 limbs come with aluminium limb tips but I'm told a dry fire can completely shatter them, so you have to be quite careful!

I'm very shocked that you still haven't developed dummy arrows (with dummy tip) and target. This would be awesome for indoor games (like darts but with crossbow) I'd buy the crossbow just for that.
I guess, you mean the StingerI correct? If yes, we have a video, sorry at the moment it's just in German, but with subtitles it should work: ruclips.net/video/4Wql6G-Yv18/видео.html
@@Steambow hey thnks for reply ! Seems tha's going to be able to fit. The translation subs. Is not that great miss some important points of the video. But if I'm correct it will work right.
@@Steambow ahh gotcha I was just curious if u we’re firing and run out u already have it out and pulled back so it would be more efficient to just load a new mag and be able to keep firing Just like an ar lol
Moin! Ich würde immer noch gerne wissen welche Änderungen es sind weshalb sich die Auslieferung um 3 Wochen (2 Monaten) verzögert? Schlimm wenn man so im dunklen gelassen wird!
Hallo Chris, wir haben jeden Vorbesteller persönlich kontaktiert und über die Verzögerung informiert. Wir hatten es uns alle anders vorgestellt und versuchen die Verzögerung so gering, wie möglich zu halten.
It would be helpful if you could tell us exactly what your problem is. In principle, you can pre-order it here: steambow.at/en/products/ar-series-m10-pre-order-bonus-bundle

i predict, with changing politics, they will become as common in homes, as a tv remote control. cant wait for mine to arrive, super excited :)

Can't wait for this to be offered on the North American website. I'm so impressed by this, can't wait

I have both worlds, Adder and Stinger. Steambow is dear, but the quality makes up for it. Excellent products.
@@axistec I second that, I have both too& the stinger is a quality item& nowhere near as heavy
@@axistec
The AR-6 dismantled the RedBack/TomCat-2 and they're about to do the same to EK Archery's over-sized repeaters.
EK Archery's Vlad is not as good as the AR6. They malfunction under cold weather, jam often and lacks on accuracy.
I can tell you from experience that the AR6 Stinger II is far superior in accuracy and quality, but it is more expensive. The platform is also constantly being developed
Ich bin begeistert. Und möchte Sie zu dieser Arbeit beglückwünschen. Das macht Lust auf mehr!

🎉 Hallo Ihr Lieben!
Love this stuff! ❤
Finally in Europe some fine cross bow pistols!
As for scopes, what is your recommendation (e.g. the lady in the background has a nice scope...)
Vielen Dank, Grüsse aus Ungarn 🇭🇺😍
Does m10 work with pistol mode (where you cock the limb by pulling back)?
Yes, it works with the Compact without any issues!
Can you shoot a full size arrow 15" with a M10 Installed?
When can we expect an all metal Lower?
Wann können wir mit einem komplett aus Metall gefertigten Tieferlegungsmodell rechnen?
I'm very shocked that you still haven't developed dummy arrows (with dummy tip) and target. This would be awesome for indoor games (like darts but with crossbow) I'd buy the crossbow just for that.
I have placed a pre-order, when do you think you will be able to ship to the USA?
The delivery with UPS also in the US from Europe is pretty fast. We hope, we can deliver end of April/beginning of May.
Excellent.👍🇺🇸
Did he say 10 rd mag?
Why do you not supply the limb block with a new limb ? Bloody annoying you buy a limb and maybeenot be able to find a limb block in stock
I have the Old system with the metal loader stinger tactical, manual 7 arrows, can I adapt the M10 upper to my steambow system ?

@@BConText yes, but you have to remove the safety.
@@Steambow Ok thnks , I’ll have to check that video again, pre ordering the mags and the upper. What carrier you guys use for 🇨🇦.
will the cart take standard 6,5 bolts
So can you reload the mag with the bow already locked back ready to fire?
You can do this in principle, but we would recommend using the manual safety feature.

Ok, nice, but what 's the reason for this? It 's neither a weapon, nor a toy.
Get one & try it then
30 joules with a sharp hunting broadhead in a rapid fire fashion sure is a weapon.
It is absolutely a weapon.
Very uneducated opinion
