170 to 190 FPS depending on bolts used.
Nice well made xbow. I did not measure the draw weight but did Chrono several arrows after assembly. Mine came with 3 plastic arrows with metal tips. They fly at 170 fps. My other plastic arrows "Speed Track pack of 60" do not engage the anti dry fire mechanism so I removed it. It's as simple as punching out a single pressed in metal retainer for the anti dry fire arm. All it took was a few soft taps and it slid out and I removed the dry fire arm. Now I can fire the widely available plastic bolts easily. These bolts fly at 190 fps so a bit faster than the included bolts. The reason for the dry fire issue is the original bolts are a little thicker so can move the dry fire arm up out of the way for the safety to be disengaged otherwise you cant disengage the safety. You can probably add a little step with a dab of glue or tape on the anti dry fire arm so the aftermarket bolts engage it. I opted to just leave it out, the safety engages automatically each time you draw the string back anyway. The xbow is completely composite material even the trigger is plastic which I dislike. It's accurate at 15 feet where I sighted it in. I aimed for an old hole in ply wood from my pellet gun and the arrow went right into that hole I was aiming at. Verdict is its not the advertised FPS. Expect 170 to 190 fps with plastic bolts. Dry fire arm should be removed or altered to allow aftermarket bolts. Trigger is plastic. Its light weight and feels well made other than a plastic trigger.Read full review

I would buy it again and tell others to buy it too.
It's overall made solid. It's really easy to assemble and set the sights. It's got better distance and accuracy than others with 50lbs draw. Just make sure you keep the string waxed so it will last longer and work better overall. Otherwise, I don't know what else I can say about it, it's definitely worth the price and keep up with the general maintenance and you'll be happy for a long time.

I have two crossbow pistols now, the PSE viper ss 50lb rated at 215fps and the Cobra 80lb crossbow pistol rated at 160fps.
They are both 20” long and 17” wide bow tip to tip uncocked and have identical 6” power strokes. The Viper ss is made mostly of a carbon/plastic material with a only few metal parts and is very light weight, the Cobra is all metal mostly aluminum is about twice as heavy as the viper and the only plastic parts on it are the 11mm dovetail rail, pistol grips and trigger. Positives. The Viper is really light weight, has a superior safety/anti dry fire, string catch and release which will make you’re string servings last much longer, 2x 20mm picitany rails and finger guards. The Cobra is more accurate, penetrates more and is easier to cock even having a heavier 80lb bow on it. Negatives. The viper makes more noise ( twwaaanggg ) when fired, only moderately accurate, harder to cock even at only a 50lb bow and worst of all the top 20mm picitany rail has a steep downward slope to it, so steep I could not use a red dot scope on it, I could not raise the dot up high enough to zero the scope and had to remove the red dot and go back to the open sights. ( I did put a laser on the bottom 20mm picitany rail and could zero that just fine but it did not improve accuracy. ) The Cobra has a weak 11mm dovetail rail, lousy safety system only locking the trigger ( no anti dry fire and can misfire if bumped just right ) and is hard on string servings with the grav drop string catch system. So if you’re just looking for some twang and bang fun and don’t want to worry about serving repair or hitting the bull’s eye all the time, the viper is a good buy but If you want something that’s really accurate and hits good and hard the Cobra is the way to go, just buy a cheap serving tool and some 100lb test twisted Kevlar kite string to reserve it with. I get 500+ rounds from the Kevlar servings just keep the rail greased and you can learn to serve a bow string in 10 mins on YouTube. Read full review

Best bang for your buck
One of the best 50 lb crossbow I've ever shot this bow has a standard crossbow trigger that you'd find on a rifle other crossbow pistols have a gravity trigger system that shred strings this bow is quick and easy to sight in accurate lightweight and easy to use I was able to site this bow in in about 10 minutes and Abel to hit oil bottle cap at 15 yards with ease dollar for dollar you can't get anything better

lots of fun reasonable powerful
This is the better of the two manufactured types. They are sold under differing names but you want the one made in Czech republic.
