👉 The Blake Weapon, also known as the Blake's Crossbow, is a unique and historically significant firearm invented by John Blake in the mid-17th century. It is essentially a crossbow mounted on a wooden stock, allowing for rapid and accurate shooting without the need to reload like traditional firearms. The weapon features a trigger mechanism that, when pulled, releases the bolt, firing multiple rounds in rapid succession. This design was revolutionary for its time, combining the power and precision of a crossbow with the mobility and ease of use of a firearm, making it a formidable tool for both military and hunting purposes.
