The Flying Hun - Chu Ko Nu (Chinese Repeating Crossbow II)

Описание к видео The Flying Hun - Chu Ko Nu (Chinese Repeating Crossbow II)

The second Chinese repeater from Mike Loades personal collection.

It was in pieces when it got here, and I had to completely disassemble it, sand down the original finish (it was discolored, mildewed and worn through in places), and completely restore the trigger and pins. It utilizes two bamboo slats for a prod, a horn trigger and a rawhide string. Currently it’s strung to about 70% of its power to not damage the prod. It probably has a bit more to give, but it’s largely going to be a display and teaching piece.

It’s not nearly as reliable as the first model I refurbished - but it’s a perfect example of a Boxer Rebellion era Cho Ko Nu.
