Is the compound bow illegal?

Not illegal.

Article 32 of the Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) on Public Security Administration Punishment stipulates that anyone who illegally carries guns, ammunition, crossbows, daggers and other state-regulated control devices shall be detained for less than five days and may be fined less than 500 yuan; If the circumstances are minor, a warning or a fine of not more than 200 yuan shall be imposed. There is no compound bow involved in the above prohibited items, so it is not illegal to play with compound bows, but attention should be paid to safety to prevent injuries.

Compound bow, recurve bow and traditional bow all belong to the category of fitness equipment. It is not illegal to buy and own a compound bow. Generally speaking, if no one is injured, he will not bear criminal responsibility or civil responsibility. However, I suggest you go to a professional place to practice archery, so as to protect yourself and their health.

Extended data:

Article 32 of the Law on Public Security Punishment: Whoever illegally carries guns, ammunition, crossbows, daggers and other control devices prescribed by the state shall be detained for not more than five days and may also be fined not more than 500 yuan; If the circumstances are minor, a warning or a fine of not more than 200 yuan shall be imposed. Whoever illegally carries guns, ammunition, crossbows, daggers and other state-regulated control devices into public places or public transport shall be detained for not less than five days but not more than ten days and may also be fined not more than 500 yuan.

Therefore, it is generally forbidden to carry such items in public places.
