RE: Is it really Bows or Guns??
We need both.
Bows and arrows were not even the first ranged weapons we moved on to those and as we evolved our technology we moved on to guns. They are more sophisticated and therefore require a more sophisticated technology to build and supply ammunition for. However, technology is not forgotten but mere unable to be applied and eventually we will run out of primers, gunpowder, cartridges and will be forced back to blackpowder weapons or bows and arrows which we can easily make.
So may view is save the better technology for what we need it for and get most of our hunting with older technology, bows, spears, snares and rocks because when it is gone it will be gone.
I have several crossbows and looking at bows for my stores and I have several air rifles and licensed weapons as well. I like to have overlap.
