Crossbow

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jump to: navigation, search
This article is about the weapon. For other uses, see Crossbow (disambiguation).

A crossbow is a weapon consisting of a bow mounted on a stock that shoots projectiles. A mechanism in the stock holds the bow in its fully-drawn position until it is shot by releasing a trigger. Crossbows played a significant role in the warfare of North Africa, Europe and Asia. Crossbows are used today primarily for target shooting and sport hunting.
