The bottom line is the energy that drives the projectile is realized from the actions of a BOW...... that's right I said it ..... a bow...... not a projectile fired through either pneumatic or explosive action......ergo it is a crossbow, not a crossgun no matter what you feel. Plain and simple. The mechanism that actually triggers the release of the projectile does not define what it is or what it is called.
Holds like a gun, looks like a gun, aims like a gun, has a scope like a gun, pre loaded like a gun, has a trigger like a gun, saftey like a gun....but has limbs like a bow? Hmmm....seems more like a gun then a bow to me.
