Repeating Crossbow

A  is a modification of a regular crossbow that involves combining the stringing of the bow, placing the bolt and firing the projectile with a single hand movement, facilitating higher rates of fire than regular crossbows. Repeating crossbows were designed and used in China circa 400-500 BC and utilized until 1912. Repeating crossbows often contained a magazine of arrows affixed on top of the crossbow, which are then fed into the bow-string ready to fire via gravity and the operation of a lever to cycle the bolt.
