← HistoryWhich outcome directly improved Qin dynasty crossbow effectiveness using new methods of metallurgy to increase system-wide stability?
A)Higher drawn weight consistency✓
B)Reduced string fraying failures
C)Improved trigger creep uniformity
D)Faster average reload times
💡 Explanation
Greater alloy purity permitted more consistent spring properties in mass manufacturing, therefore, improved weapon-to-weapon variation, because improved heat treatment for steel allows higher spring stiffness and therefore increased overall bow draw weight consistency, rather than just reduced string wear.
