Specialty Weapons Magnesium Arrow Tipped C4 Crossbow While bows aren't usually considered firearms, bows with Magnesium Phosphate C4 arrow tips are a different story. Van Zan and Quinn both use these crossbows when facing the Bull Dragon at the film's climax. Van Zan tells Quinn that the only way to kill it is to wait when it breathes fire, because only then does it expose its chest. Van Zan almost hits the Bull while standing on a tower, but it breathes fire and the arrow only manages to ignite its flame early, damaging its mouth and causing it to breathe smoke. When Quinn faces it, he loses his arrows whilst doing a Judo roll away from the dragon as it strikes. He manages to grab one of the arrows, and right before the Bull torches him, he fires it into the dragons mouth, blowing up its napalm valve and severing its head.
