Do crossbows really fire arrows? I thought they fired bolts.

Well, they fire bolts in all the computer games I've played. I've never owned a crossbow, so I don't think I'm an authority.

I always thought they fired either bolts or quarrels. However, a quick search of websites for modern crossbows indicates they now fire arrows.

Sounds like the cops don't know much about primative weapons...
