A simple weapon used by humans since time immemorial, and still found on primitive worlds. Due to a simple design, the bow is easily manufactured; though it may be disproportionately difficult to find on the market on many worlds, due to the easy availability of even simple firearms.

One of the oldest weapons in civilization, bows can range from primitive constructions of wood and sinew to weapons made from fine composites and wire micro-fibres. Their primary utility is silence, as they are relatively ineffective compared to modern weapons.
