Wrist Rocket to the rescue!

I like the 7.62 X 39 over the 223. I run mine out of an old russian AK and a min.30.
I have been looking at a 454 but the price of the ammo is pushing me away, and I just can not think of a good reason to have a hand cannon. So I will probaly just stick with the 9mm.

Different guns have different uses. You don't use the same hammer for all uses. You wouldn't use a sledgehammer to drive a tack, & a tack hammer won't drive large stakes into the ground. Some guns put out a large volumn of fire, some are single shot tack drivers.

Of course, slingshots are illegal in MA, like most everything except government overspending.

Interesting read on snake shot:

And, for those who have not visited his web site before, there is LOTS of good reading there.

So, how exactly does one get good at using a slingshot? Don't say "Practice, practice, practice" because I think that there is something that I am missing. Slingshots do not exactly have sights, and I have never been able to get anywhere near my targets.

Is there a web site somewhere explaining proper slingshot usage?

Handyman,

People who own guns rarely worry about how few they "need." What really concerns us is how many we can accumulate without severely pissing off the wife.

Malpaso --- slingshots are ilegal in MA. ????????? Are you sure . I've never heard that before . I was thinking about ordering one from Cabela's

I picked up a sling shot back in March and after about 3 weeks of shooting it for about 30 minutes a few days a week I got to were I could hit a cigarette pack at about 40 feet.

Then I seen one that had sights on it at a local gun shop so I got it, and I don’t see how people use the sights, I could not hit a pie plate at 10 feet with it..

Like all things if you don’t practice you wont become good at it, not many people can just pick up a hand gun or rifle and shoot like a pro. The same with a slingshot or a Bow, it just takes patients and practice, practice, practice.
