You've got Joerg Sprave to thank.

Take a look at his multishot bow, the Legolas

The problem is, while the crossbow is quiet, when you yell: "Let me show you its features!" you will alert the enemy. 🤣

Fun fact: crossbows aren't super quiet. I'm sure some are, and they're definitely quieter than a gun, but every crossbow I've shot or seen shot has had a crack audible for hundreds of feet.

[OutlawCaliber]

They actually pan away because there's no poundage to his crossbow. When he fires, the bolt literally just bloops out to the ground. lol That said, yes, crossbows take a second to reload.

When my shotgun runs out of ammo, I just use my other shotgun

Van Helsing's crossbow: *Pathetic*

Just watch a German build an arrow magazine for a cordless drill powered self reloading crossbow on YouTube 😅

[MalakaiSchuhart]

They aren’t arrows. They’re bolts. But yes, crossbows are often take a while to reload. Some even models require you to crank a handle to reset the string.

Repeating crossbows are fantastic. But just for your information they've evolved a lot since this model. There's a new and improved V2 magazine for that EK Archery Adder you have there, there's also the Steambow Stinger 2, the EK Archery Vlad, and various 3D printable models with interesting features like double stacked magazines for holding more ammo. There's the upcoming Mei Interceptor which will evolve it further with interchangeable magazines and superior accuracy. Then you have the repeating bows (as opposed to crossbows) which have their own pros and cons. The market has really evolved!

[jeremywright]

I like this crossbow, looks very practical.

[MycoloJust]

Thank you bro. I love archery but I normally don't look at crossbow this is a game changer.

[josaflafondi]

The siege is twice as powerful. You gotta give it to Joerge.

[ghettoleprechaun]

I'm going for a ruger 10/22 or similar rifle. Extremely plentiful ammo and with good aim can harvest anything from squirrel to deer

[CW-jbwf]

Reminds me of the Chu-ko-nu repeating crossbow from 4th Century BC. It might be a good design to memorize since it seems somewhat simple to reproduce. Or not, I don't do much crafting LOL But, a fast-firing weapon like that with a 'magazine' being used in ancient times always seemed kind of neat to me.

[TheMonkiekitty]

Oh, the guy who designed is absolutely hysterical. I love watching him and he will make prototypes of plywood and 2 by 4

Automatic Chinese Crossbows like a thousand years ago: Haha, novices...
