Again I ask: Why do you feel threatened by people hunting with crossbows during archery season?

"TPWD defines archery equipment as hand held and hand drawn. Accordingly, crossbows are not archery equipment..." For now, anyway. Expect that to change when the 81st Legislature convenes.

Because as previously stated, a bow fires a projectile with energy stored in a bent limb via a string. This "arrow gun" obviously does not. You seem very adamant about the "shoulder fired" factor....

A way with words goes with the job description. :D Sorry, guns go "boom!" and propel a projectile under impetus of expanding gases due to a chemical reaction. Bows do not--even shoulder-fired...
