• Anything ‘published’ on the web is viewed as intellectual property and, regardless of whether it displays a copyright symbol or not, is therefore copyrighted by the originator. The only exception to this is if there is a “free and unrestricted reuse” statement associated with the work.

    In order to protect our members and TFL from possible litigation, all members must abide by the following new rules:

    1. Copying and pasting entire articles from another site to TFL is strictly prohibited. The same applies to articles from print or other media, and to posting photographs taken of copyrighted pages or other media.

    2. Copyright law provides for “fair use” of portions of a copyrighted work. You can copy no more than a SINGLE paragraph from the article to your post (3 or 4 sentences at most).

    3. You must provide a link to the article along with the name of website. For example: ww.xxx.yyy/zzz (The Lower Thumbsuck Daily News).

    4. You must provide, in your own words, a brief summary of the article AND your reasons for believing it will be of interest to TFL members. Failure to do so may result in the thread being closed or your post being deleted as a “cut and paste drive by.”

    5. Photographs and other images are also copyrighted. "Hotlinking" of images (so that it appears in your message) from other sites is also prohibited unless you own rights to the image. If you wish to share an image, provide a clickable link to it.

    Posts that do not follow these new guidelines will be altered or deleted by staff. Members who continue to violate this policy may lose their posting privileges at TFL.

    Thank you for your cooperation and your participation in TFL, the leading online forum for firearms enthusiasts.

Well, this is a firearms board. Why would you want to advertise a cross bow on a gun board? We don't take sword adverts, nunchakku adverts or throwing star adverts either. I guess I could go on with more examples, but I guess the answer is if you wanted to advertise any of these for trade for a firearm, it would be accepted. As long as a firearms is involved we pretty much allow it.

Just make sure you read the posting rules and eligibility guidelines before doing it.

Never thought about crossbows before they may not be firearms but they are used in the same ways. You would descibe someone as having shot a crossbow.

I guess the rule applies to airguns as well?

There have been many airguns bought and sold here. An arrow shooter is not a gun. An airgun is. But, as Bud said, a trade of a crossbow or other type of bow for a firearm is perfectly fine.
