Good, but one problem

Date:August 26, 2010
"This is a decent sling shot. I have experienced only one problem. The wrist support has a tendency to give when you put tension on it. I resolved this bu putting some hockey tape over the bottom so it wouldn't slip. Once I did that I was able to enjoy the sling shot. It's accurate and I've found the bands to be strong and durable."

Cheap but useful

Date:June 16, 2010
"I bought this for pest control basicly. Keeps squirrels and raccoons away or gets their attention from a distance. Overall the build is good but the bands are weak and don't last long. Replacement bands are cheap though.
This is a good slingsho for light duty fun."

good bang for the buck

Date:July 18, 2009
"its cheap, and it shoots hard,
my only gripe is that the bands are a little too fragile, and mine snapped after about a hundred shots, but replacement bands are only a few dollars, so it's no big loss.
if you want a slingshot, for just fun, or very light pest control, this is all you need right here, costs mere pocket change, and has only what you need, and no useless extras."

Great buy for the price

Date:July 9, 2009
"I've only had this slingshot for a week, but from what I can tell, it's really good. I've really stretched the bands, and there's no visible signs of wear or stretching. Really the only issue I have with it is that the wrist brace is really stiff to swing around out of the folded position, so be warned that when you first get it, if it seems stuck, just push until it folds over, and it'll be way easier after the first time. Other than that, it seems really good."

Not Bad

"Used for it a weekend and then the rubber bands broke, and they are impossible to get off and even harder to get new ones on."

Fun little toy

Date:April 8, 2008
"This slingshot is pretty fun to go shooting cans and bottles with. I was surprised by how powerful it was actually. It sure tears through cardboard boxes in a flash :) Fun little toy to go out playing with in the backyard."
