Weapon Safety, Wednesday
"Hey guys, I hope everyone had a great break," Sam said, grinning at everyone from between two targets. Today, instead of the target dummies, there were colorful circular targets facing the class. "Today, we're going to play around with some crossbows. We may look at regular bows and arrows at a later time, but crossbows can be a very effective weapon because they're smaller, and therefore easier to carry around, and pack a pretty significant punch."
Sam demonstrated how to load a bolt into the crossbow, and then fired at one of the targets, landing a loud, satisfying thunk close to the center of the circle. "The hardest part might be loading the bolt without snapping yourself with the string. Once you've got a handle on that, see how close you can get to the center of your target. I have a feeling some of you will be naturals at this."
