The stirruped version is so common that we have a specific word for it in Finnish, "jalkajousi" "footbow", where any crossbow is "varsijousi" and a smaller ones can be "käsijousi" "handbow". But jalkajousi is the most common word for a large crossbow I'd say, stirruped or not.

I shot one in my tweens iirc (as in I remember the shooting but not the age). A proper non-modern one as well, some class trip I think to an outdoors museum sort of thing.
