Archery has been practiced for centuries. Many cultures developed archery as a means of hunting for food as well as a weapon to fend off others. You can build your own crossbows and arrows using these free plans.

This repeating crossbow has all the handling characteristics of a fine repeating rifle of the slide-action type. In the hands of an experienced crossbowman it will deliver five shots in five seconds with near-rifle accuracy over ranges up to 40 yards.

Excellent instructions for this crossbow, but it lacks pictures and drawings.
