A serious point to remember. “Obsolete” weapons can be every bit as lethal as more modern types, they are just in general more difficult to use.

The main reason firearms replaced archery is that anybody can pull a trigger. Hitting something with an arrow takes skill.

Exactly I been hunting with both for over 50 years.

I’ll take any decent long gun over a bow any day.
