I have this quiver, which is fine for crossbow bolts (it holds three or four).

www.edhellen.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Screen...ategory_Code=quivers

The quiver lists for $39 and the bolts for $10 each (there are three) for a total of $69.

The entire set can be had for $49.

On the note of Crossbows, I'm still really interested in purchasing one but I've been having a really, and I mean really, hard time finding anyone who sells larp safe crossbows that won't murder whoever I shoot with them. Does anyone have either a crossbow they'd be willing to sell or know of a place that sells them?

Depending on the answer, I may be interested in those bolts Charlie.

This would go ditto for me.  I have looked far and wide for a crossbow that fits the regulations but it has been hard...

I've found these guys online:

www.hollowearthswordworks.com/crossbows.htm

The 20 pounds should be good, and bolts are available separately (from EdHellen by way of Charlie, or I think Knighthawk Armory).

My crossbow I use for Carlos was made by a company called Arrow Kaster, that seems to no longer be around.  I'd purchased it from LRPstore.com a few years back, but they no longer have them.

While looking at www.larpspace.com , I found a guy who makes his own crowsbows.
http://fast1.onesite.com/larpspace.com/user/bane_the_black_rose/items_for_ordersale/previous_orders/770560bcdf00726398980cae23abbc18.jpg?v=151313 http://fast1.onesite.com/larpspace.com/user/bane_the_black_rose/items_for_ordersale/previous_orders/3a4ca053dd74d1a685a61b99fb0ceea6.jpg?v=270000

I asked him for the specs and the response I got was...

while the range still tends to be variable, it is roughly 20-30 feet(fairly accurately) can be volleyed up to 50, and can be shot very accurately for about 15-20 (8-in-10)
the poundage has been extimated to be approximately 15, and hits with about the force of a standard larp bow.
has been accepted for Live effects, Realms of Conflict, Dagorhir, and Belegarth.
they come in a $100 package, which includes the bow, 12 bolts, a quiver, and a belt holster for the bow.


I will see about if I can get my hands on 1 to check it out and if it is a viable, decent make... then we may have a new crossbow supplier.  Though, I will admit I dislike the design of the "bolts" he is using... but that's just a personal thing with me.
