Which is really ironic, as my late father is the formal registered inventor of the Folding Crossbow.

No, this one isn’t a folding crossbow, but it does seem powerful enough to potentially be deadly. It’s raining today so I’ll have to wait for a good weather day and find an old used slab of wood for target practice.
It’s a important rule generally, but with steel arms at this small size and light draw weight it doesn’t really matter.
Yeah was gonna say. Dry firing a trad longbow is a no-no because of this
