Gothic crossbows in gemeral historic documents

Richard,

Like you, I have often wished to actually experience life in that far away time period.

On second thought, however, that would not only mean a romantic feeling handling the weapons but some inconveniences like medical and hygienic restrictions, pestilence, plagues etc. as well.

I think we are better off nowadays, treating those ages in academic research.

Thank you so much,

Michael
