← HistoryWhich limitation was faced when scaling mechanized crossbows in the Three Kingdoms period?
A)Insufficient arrow fletching stabilization
B)Inaccurate targeting at long range
C)Inconsistent trigger sear engagement✓
D)Premature string degradation from stress
💡 Explanation
Scaling the repeating crossbow stresses the trigger sear mechanism because rapid firing requires a lighter sear; therefore, consistent engagement becomes problematic, rather than issues specifically related to fletching, range, or string material during this period.
