ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a stirrup for use in an underwater weapon for firing arrows. The stirrup comprises two generally V-shaped rods that are joined together at their ends. The rods are attached at their ends to resilient cables for being tensioned to fire the arrows. One of the rods is adapted to fit into the nock of an arrow while the other rod is adapted to brace the stirrup to prevent it from breaking as a result of the forces applied thereto upon repeated firing of arrows. The stirrup of the invention permits thin arrows to be fired with a much improved velocity with regard to prior art weapons.
