So first of all my advise is don’t pay too much attention to what the website says, delivery and what’s in stock because it’s wrong. I ordered the Orion iv which said 2-3 days delivery... See more

Not received yet

Not received yet, had paid for Evri delivery, specifically for the time slot feature of their service. Unfortunately item was sent via Parcel force, who expect you to not work and be home all day. As a consequence I am still waiting. Have diverted delivery to local PO after two delivery attempts while I eas working. I dont usually deal with companies who use parcel force/ royal mail because of the slapdash manner of their deliveries.
Dispatch seemed quick and pricing is competitive. Delivery leaves a lot to be desired, but cant blame TA for that.

**DONT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY**
Placed an Order In November 2024 to date still nothing - No responses to Emails, Online Chats or Telephone call. No Customer Service skills and have had to claim back through my Bank. Shocking Service - Please be wary if you do place an order

Order never arrived

Ordered a new bow in the black friday sale, it never arrived.
When I asked about it, they said it had been delivered and sent me a link to a picture of somebody else's front door. Not even the right colour.
Ver dissapointed

Excellent service

Having read some of the very negative review, I thought I would share my experience. I ordered a small pistol crossbow on a Sunday evening in October 2024. It was dispatched on Monday and delivered the next day.
I then ordered a full size crossbow about a week later. It was dispatched the same day and delivered the next day. I was extremely happy with the service on both occasions and will have no hesitation in ordering from them again.

There was a mix up with the sku of the scope i bought,, but i found Harry to be very helpful, responded to my emails within 24 hrs, I'm not sure that some of the negative reviews are entirely fair, i would use these guys again..

Scammers

Bought a crossbow. Changed my mind the next day and cancelled. Sent an email, no response, used live chat, no response. Called everyday, no answer. Sent message on Facebook with only an automated response. Still not had a refund, can’t get hold of anyone so I’ve raised a dispute with my credit card provider and they said they’d sort it for me. Tactical Archery are clearly a bunch of scammers. Normally when a company ignores you to this degree, it’s because they’re going into liquidation but don’t quote me on that. Stay away from this company.

Company sold my wife a mantis crossbow bundle...

I did have some issues with some items being missing from a bundle which was told I would be getting them sent out, after that there wasn't any further communication so I originally left a lower review due to that, I have since been emailed by the company who said they had been waiting for stock and they have since then sent out the items I hadn't received plus some additional targets and a spare string so thank you for rectifying the issue! Have edited my review and star rating to reflect the resolved issue!

They will ignore you if any issues.

Placed an order on an in stock item on 15/08/24 expecting it to be delivered next day or day after. Nothing delivered, no updates other than order confirmation. I have tried ringing up, nobody answers and you can’t leave a message. I have tried a typed message through their get in touch page last week asking to cancel the order if there’s a problem getting it, this has been ignored, tried ringing today still not answering.Time to raise a complaint through my bank and get my money back that way, do not buy from this company
