A crossbow includes a barrel with a flight groove 11, and a bow. A magazine 2 is mounted to the barrel and located above the flight groove 11. A passage 21 is defined through the magazine 2 for accommodating multiple arrows therein (22, see e.g. figure 9A). A slot 23 is formed between the magazine 2 and the flight groove 11. A string 122 of the bow movably extends through the slot 23. An arm 3 is pivotally located in the passage 21 and includes a hook end 31 which presses on a top-most arrow of the arrows in the magazine 2 when there are arrows present in the magazine 2. When no arrow is in the magazine 2, the hook end 31 is inserted into the slot 23 and a user cannot successfully cock the string 122 because the string 122 is stopped by the hook end 31, so that the user is made aware that there is no arrow in the magazine 2.
