I own a Stinger 2 and like it, so I please take this with respect. I'm confused because I believe something has changed. Why do I say this? Well you showed how to load the M10 magazine a few months ago and showed how loading one aluminum arrow would be problematic (it jumped out almost immediately). You said you need to load more arrows. Then in this video, you show it with no problems. To me even without a 3rd party reviewing, it seems like something has changed.
I realise who this video is aimed at, but he is not the only person complaining about the M10 magazine being poor, with bolts dropping out and being on the flimsy side. There is no question that the Stinger 2 is a brilliant design and concept, but the M10 design seems to have been rushed to compete with the competition and at the price, almost £200 for the M10 upper, it should be perfect. I won't buy one untilnl see these faults have been corrected. I'm happy with my 6 shot Stinger 2.
The M-10 is no different than most first-production models in that most suffer from problems. For example, the Mey Interceptor's line of sight is too low to shoot accurately with the second included adapter, forcing one to use the first adapter, which creates a non-dynamic clawgrip shooting style. In addition, the handle is placed too far forward, which makes it difficult to shoot accurately while standing.
Amazing info, I watched both videos (your competitors) and know exactly what you are talking about. I own the M10 which I upgraded from the normal AR6, and also own the compact version and have had minimal issues, I did upgrade the magazines and they work much better from the initial magazine releases.
As a customer, I've got 2x 55lbs, 1x 35lbs and one 150lbs limbs from Steambow and I will give my testimony for those. All of them are spot on with their draw weight and performance. Also, I have to agree with Gerard about performance. I agree that longevity and reliability is way more important than power.
If you have a magazine with bolts and want to put in a fresh magazine, will the bolts all come out of the magazine? From what I see, this magazine doesn't release one bolt at a time, as soon as the magazine is inserted, the bolts all fall inside the crossbow. That doesn't seem very tactical to me. If this problem is solved, maybe I'll buy the crossbow, the new production of magazines with Will the ainti dry fire system be the same price? Or will it be even more expensive and because 70 euros for a magazine like this is ridiculous, and will the problem with the pin that holds the top of the crossbow be resolved?If I buy the m10 does it already come with the new trigger?
I have the Stinger 2 tactical with a metal magazine and this is the best repeating crossbow you ever made. My M10 upper is currently sat in a drawer unused. Sorry, but its just how it is
Every company has room for improvement and growth. Which should be considered. I am a repeatedly satisfied customer, so i will continue to support and promote your products. Thanks!
Love the M10 and thinking of purchasing one, now on the M10 you said on one of the videos about it, that the front part can be exchanged, would you consider doing one with Picatinny rails like the one it comes with plus adding the red laser with the switch like the ar-6 has? I find the laser insert a genius idea. Please make it happen
I just received my very first product from Steambow 2 days ago which is the Stinger 2 and I LOVE it. The design is so innovative. Hope that future improvements and modifications will remain compatible with the model.
Im getting my M10 in literally and hour, give or take depending on the postman😂. Ive already the Stinger AR6 open system for 1 year. The Steambow M10 will make a fine addition to my collection and to ize on my range.
You can't gaslight us when your OWN VIDEO 4 months ago shows them popping out while you load it and warning not to remove the magazine until its empty. I am going to go download that video before you delete it.
The competition’s emphasis on limb thickness shows their limited understanding of the archery industry. To achieve the correct draw weight and optimal speed, factors like string rotation, brace height, and draw length must be set to the manufacturer’s original specifications. Speed is also influenced by arrow weight, string quality, and proper application of grease. Keep up the great work, Steambow-I’m really impressed with the M10 and all your innovations!
Having a lightweight cheap repeating crossbow is what I seek and it's even better with a magazine. I'm just waiting a bit before buying one of your new product. I must say i'm already pretty satisfied with my old AR-6. Competition is also a good thing to get different designs and innovations.
The Mey Interceptor and the Revo7 remain difficult to cock in small spaces. For example, I can"t imagine trying to cock a Revo7 or Mey while sitting behind my car's driver's seat. I love small crossbows too!

I think this is all you need to know!

Why didn't you load full magazine in video? That would remove any doubts about them, this way I can't say i am fully convinced in what you are saying.

Healthy competition isn’t a bad thing. But this hobby is still in its infancy and rivalries shouldn’t be this toxic. Lets all chill out.

I remember that video too. I think he would have been better off saying " we fixed the problem."
