There's also the fact that, if it were a crossbow, she wouldn't need to put it in a damn box. She could just put it on her back like most other students do. Her weapon is something that she cannot carry any other way. It's something that made Monty say that he would have to TRY to make it all fit inside.

Also, crossbow would make her an archer, not a mage, even if the bolts were tipped with Dust.

It's also not a staff or a wand, as she could carry either of those without a box.
