(4) "The details indicate a knowledge of the weapons of war, and neither Elkanah nor Hannah had any military experience."  This ridiculous criticism is founded upon a single word, the word `bows' in  1 Samuel 2:4.

In that age, there was not a dummy on earth who was ignorant of the fact that a bow, used to shoot arrows, was a very important military weapon.
