[Ansteorra-missile] Kingdom Archery Marshal report...

[John Moore]

The question I have is why are we dropping the 160psi apd's.  Most of the
crossbow bolts that have siloflex apd's are equipped with the 160 psi
variant.  It is much easier to find in your local home store and already
comes in 5' straight lengths.  It would seem to me that we are going to have
to change a bunch of apd's this way.
