Question
History

Within Ming Dynasty weaponry, which consequence arises when variations occur during the casting of the crossbow's trigger mechanism?

A)Weaker projectile initial velocity
B)Unreliable firing of the projectile
C)Increased bowstring tensile strength
D)Lower draw weight efficiency

💡 Explanation

Unreliable firing emerges because subtle dimensional inaccuracies during investment casting alter the trigger's sear engagement; this results in unpredictable release rather than a consistent trigger pull. Therefore, misfires are more frequent, rather than simply reducing power.
