Forget that old-school slingshot. This is an awesome DIY alternative to the choice weapon of Dennis the Menace. Not only is this a great project for your older and more responsible kids when SHTF, but this would work as an excellent alternative weapon when other weapons aren't available.
I can't believe how strong those are! Think about all the ways you could utilize this lightweight item in your bug out bag!
In case you're thinking that making something like this is silly, you never want to be caught unprepared. Knowing how to create small and effective weapons like this can keep you safe during the right SHTF moment, and help you when guns and other weapons aren't there by your side.

not buying into this-
Have hunted with what was called the Wrist Rocket sling shot-was never an easy thing-but used everything from 36 cal lead bullets -ball bearings-even marbles-and it would adapt for arrows-but still-a 22 pistol or a 410 is a much better choice…
Point-yes-maybe useful to somebody for knocking over beer cans with enough practice-but if you think you gonn eat off that-well you better pack a lunch…
I doubt it’s lethality for hunting small game. But if your going to make one, try cutting the bottle top off with a hot blade. It will be easier and will leave a smoother edge on the plastic so maybe the balloon won’t tear on it.
We used to have wars with these, could kill birds and small stuff but I have plenty to go after big game for a few years 😉
Learn how to build traps and snares-learn how to catch fish-this thing is not gonna get you anywhere
I call bullshit
Umm yea. … YOU rely on this. I’ve got other plans.
Next stop… pissen on a forest fire for safety… full story at eleven.
