...I never quite understood why there is such an insistence on agents using bows. I always imagined rookie agents toting stirrup crossbows into medieval/fantasy 'verses. Sure they're technically not canonical in, say, the Lord of the Rings, but they fire pretty much the same thing, right?

Plus, crossbows have the advantage of being easy to maintain, easier to fire than a bow, and can actually pose a significant threat to armoured opponents. What's not to like?
