No, this one isn't a folding crossbow, but it does seem powerful enough to potentially be deadly. It's raining today so I'll have to wait for a good weather day and find an old used slab of wood for target practice.

In fairness I said jealous when I meant envious. The moral high ground will be turned back into wilderness at this rate
