Original Description:
I offer here an absolute rarity, an authentic medieval crossbow.It is a German piece from the 15th century and documents the transition from the horn bow to the steel bow. The shaft is still in the style of crossbows with horn but the bow is already made of steel. The shaft seems to be made of walnut and is covered with horn. The staghorn nut is attached with a thread suspension.The crossbow already has a safety mechanism.The originally arrow rest made of bone was already replaced in f...ormer times by one in iron. Finely curved trigger guard with decorations. Length 71cm (without ring) bow 56cm.
Absolutely authentic and extremely rare piece!

Ich biete hier eine absolute Rarität an, eine authentische mittelalterliche Armbrust. Es handelt sich um ein deutsches Stück aus dem 15. Jahrhundert und dokumentiert den Übergang vom Hornbogen zum Stahlbogen. Die Säule ist noch im Stil der Armbrüste mit Hornbogen, der Bogen ist bereits aus Stahl gefertigt. Die Säule scheint aus Nussbaum gefertigt zu sein und ist mit Bein belegt. Die Nuss aus Hirschhorn ist mit einer Fadenaufhängung angebracht. Die Armbrust besitzt bereits einen Sicherungsmechanismus. Die wohl ursprünglich beinerne Bolzenauflage wurde bereits in früherer Zeit durch eine in Eisen ersetzt. Fein geschwungener Abzugsbügel mit Verzierungen. Länge 71cm (ohne Ring) Bogen 56cm.
Absolut authentisches und extrem seltenes Stück!
