By cracky I got one of them somewhere! I had to hide it when the boy was growing up

Wrist Rocket? I think it's called wrist rocket

We carry a bucket of rocks and a slingshot[or two] with us near always.

nastygunz · March 30, 2016, 09:30:16 PM

I had a wrist rocket too!

I have 4 slingshots in different configurations. Ammo consists of ball bearings to pieces of iron ore. Lot of fun with a slingshot

nastygunz · March 31, 2016, 01:06:25 AM

I have to rustle up some ammo for that classic.

Trying to figure out why 'always?'

Grouse?
I remember having a slingshot and then making the jump to the wrist rocket - That's a big jump for a 10 year old!
That one looks pretty high tech, Nasty

Always have something to do. Gophers, mice, water, bear and most anything is a potential target. A Tobacco can takes up little space and if needed the can has been used for other applications.

here's your slingshot guru, field testing a new design...

That guy is seriously ingenious with some of the mechanical things he comes up with. I have been watching his channel for quite a while.

Wow, what a throw back. You just reminded me of me and my brother going to the train tracks to stock up on iron ore balls.

I am going to hit the dollar store this weekend and load up on some bags of marbles.

FinsnFur · March 31, 2016, 10:09:31 PM

Gooooooood idea. I heard you lost your marbles

pitw · March 31, 2016, 10:45:41 PM

Garage/auction sales where you find a box of nut's for cheap works well too.

I never woulda thought of that. Good idea

1/4 to 3/8 hex nuts work pretty well.

FinsnFur · April 03, 2016, 10:45:40 AM

So whats that arrow looking obtrusion on the front of that one? A counter weight?

Yep, Similar to what you would have on a bow.

So is there going to be another "Handle" (name) change?... Nastysling?

nastygunz · April 03, 2016, 04:27:11 PM

After a few beers at my mothers birthday party yesterday the kid talked me out of it! But I just ordered another one today.
