Removing the Dissipator Bars From Excalibur Crossbow

Removing the Excalibur Crossbow's "dissipator bars" to replace them can be done in a few minutes. The Excalibur Crossbow has two dissipator bars on the front of the bow that are attached with Allen bolts. The dissipator bars are designed to reduce the amount of vibration from the crossbow. Over time, they can eventually wear out the bars, requiring that they be replaced.
