We used to take tissue paper and make a ball with some #8 shot and shoot doves off the wires with our wrist rockets. The old man used to wonder why his bags of shot were always light and why we had so many doves in the freezer. We used to shoot carp also with ball bearing balls, he worked for a bearing manufacturer so we always had an endless supply. When the carp were spawning, the wrist rocket was a formidable weapon on them | |||

Well, there wasn't a lot of surgical tubing available in the Levant in 1000 B.C. The fish is mute, expressionless. The fish doesn't think because the fish knows everything. | |||

what can I say the good nuns skimmed over the weapons used and emphasized the triumph of good over evil. The cool priest in the parish would have played it straight. | |||

As a mean little kid in South MS, my wrist rocket was used to shoot a plethora of birds and squirrels. My brother and I got good enough to (occasionally) shoot birds in mid flight, and a perched bird in my grandmother's bird bath was a goner... ________________________________________________ "You cannot legislate the poor into freedom by legislating the wealthy out of freedom.

All you Wrist Rocket fans, go to about 6:20 in the vid I posted at the bottom of page one and look at Alien clamps. These can mount to Wrist Rockets and give you a lot more band/tube options, very easy to use. You would still have to fit a pouch to whatever band/tube you choose but the Aliens hugely expand the WW's versatility. There are many YouTubes on bandset making. Set the controls for the heart of the Sun. | |||

I had an Opie sling shot when I was a kid. Easily made. . | |||

Marksman one worked fine until the plastic end cap wore through then sliced the tube. Watch them for wear. | |||

Had a few wristrockets as a kid. We used to use the ball bearings we would find on the train tracks. ___________________________ | |||
