TenPoint and Wicked Ridge Crossbows Recalled

TenPoint CrossBow Technologies of Mogadore, Ohio, is recalling about 127,000 TenPoint and Wicked Ridge crossbows.

After the safety has been re-engaged, the crossbows can fire under certain circumstances if a consumer pulls the trigger, posing an injury hazard.

The company has received 19 reports of arrows releasing from the crossbows when the consumer pulled the trigger under certain circumstances after the safety mechanism was re-engaged. There have been no reported injuries.

This recall involves 9 models of 2 brands of crossbows that can be identified by their serial numbers, which are located on the left side of the barrel of the crossbow below the trigger box.

The TenPoint or Wicked Ridge brand name is printed on both sides of the crossbow barrel on all models except the GT Flex. The model name appears on both sides of the stock on all models. The GT Flex crossbows are black. The other affected models are camouflage patterns. One TenPoint Titan Extreme model crossbow and one Wicked Ridge Warrior HL model crossbow were specially produced in black, rather than the camouflage pattern that is standard for those models.

The following crossbows, manufactured from 2011 to 2014, are being recalled:
