You sure know your weapons. I recently watched some atlatl videos and saw a test against armor. Several expert throwers tried different stone points and a small dent was the best they could do.
I fancy myself a weapons expert. 😞

Ok, weapons expert, answer me this:
Are these atlatls a real weapon, or just a weapon delivery system?
I guess they could be a weapon if you consider the spears they throw as "ammo".

An atlatl is a tool that uses mechanical advantage. So is a gun. Or a bow.
So is it a weapon (the spears are just ammo), or a weapon delivery system (the spears are the weapon)?
