Ravin R18 Crossbow the First Ever Takedown-Style Crossbow

Ravin has a new take on crossbow design with the R18, using the new VertiCoil Cam System to compact a full-power crossbow into a weapon a fraction of the size of all others. The takedown-style R18 is a narrow 4.75 inches wide only 18 inches long without its detachable stock configuration. This makes the R18 the shortest Ravin ever created.

The proprietary VertiCoil Cam System that powers the R18 uses HeliCoil Technology and—literally—cranks it up. This system rotates the R18’s ultra-small cams 720 degrees, wrapping the crossbow string and cables around the cam and cam axle, resulting in an axle-to-axle height of just 1.3 inches when cocked.

“Every year we identify and obliterate boundaries no one else in our industry sees,” says Doug Guthrie, New Product Development at Ravin. “The R18 is a unique takedown-style crossbow and has the latest groundbreaking and innovative technology from Ravin.”

Using the VertiCoil Cam System, the limbs of the R18 expand vertically instead of horizontally for an axle-to-axle height of just 1.3 inches when fully cocked or 4.1 inches uncocked. The 6-pound R18 features a detachable stock with an integrated removable quiver system, a built-in cocking mechanism for an easy draw, anti-dry fire/auto safety, and built-in sling mounts.

Inside the box contains the new Ravin 3-Dot Reflex Sight for easy target acquisition, three 350-grain 16-inch R18 arrows with field points, and a removable draw handle. The R18 is black and will be available in Spring 2021 with an MSRP of $1,549.99.
