← HistoryWhich projectile risk increased when repeated quick firing occurred with early Chinese repeating crossbows?
A)Inaccurate arrow trajectory occurred thereafter✓
B)String wear induces component separation
C)Firing pin fractures from impact
D)Bow limbs experienced material creep
💡 Explanation
In early Chinese repeating crossbows, rapid firing increased the risk of inaccurate arrow trajectory because the Recoil Accumulation mechanism caused cumulative misalignment; therefore , accuracy greatly diminished, rather than structural failures being the primary issue.
