Condition report:
The crossbow is in very good vintage cosmetic condition. The wooden stock shows minor surface scuffs and light wear consistent with age and storage. The metal riser and stirrup exhibit light dust and minor finish wear. The cabling is currently loose and unstrung, with a teardrop steel cable end hanging loose near one of the limb pulleys. This item is sold as a collectible; the cabling and string must be fully serviced and replaced by a professional before any attempt is made to string or fire the weapon.
