Now that isa trulyinteresting idea quicksilver. My bet is they would find a reason to outlaw it. Maybe not though. I can see the argument both for and against. Cons would say that you are effectively "cocking" it with each stroke.Pros would say no, as long as your release mechanism never leaves the string and tension is continuously maintained it's not cocking at all. The "cocking" obsticle does seem kind of difficult to overcome though. Do you think it's possible? If it's like the air gun, it is essentially "cocked" with each stroke. Anyway, neat idea, if you could make it work I think you would become a very rich man!
