Description
-
This Italian pellet crossbow features a wooden stock of square section (restored at the edge) that curves down at the front, a design typical of its archetype. It has an iron prod mounted to the stock with iron mounts and a pyramidal spike at the front of the crossbow, likely used to anchor it to surfaces for drawing. Its sights and trigger are also made of iron, and its bowstring is missing. Its iron surfaces are heavily rusted.
