Description
In an effort to continuously improve my slings, I've upgraded the thickness of leather that I use to craft this sling, and am now using4-5 oz.
Kodiak black
oil tanned leather. This gives the suede side of the leather a deeper black color, and the pouch a thicker, more robust grip. I've also added a red Tiger's Eye natural gemstone behind the comfy-grip button for a unique and stylish flair that allows you to generate more force / pop on your release.
Each sling has the following features:
·
The pouch, finger-loop, and button are all made of
4-5 oz. Kodiak black oil tanned
black leather.
·
The pouch and finger loop are reinforced for durability with solid brass grommets (see photos)
·
The cord is made from a sturdy Mil Spec 7 Strand Type III Nylon 550 Parachute Cord and tied off with some insanely strong Kevlar thread. Additionally, DUE TO THE HIGH DEMAND FOR DESERT CAMO PARACORD & THESE SLINGS, THIS SLING WILL BE OUTFITTED WITH EITHER RATTLESNAKE DESERT CAMO (see picture 4, left) OR GOLDEN SAND DESERT CAMO (see picture 4, right).
Slings can be excellent for:
·
Survival situations!
o
Because rocks are almost everywhere (and therefore not provided in this auction), you’ll have access to an enormous (and cheap) supply of projectiles!
o
Because the inside of the parachute cord contains 7 white strands of strong nylon material that can be used as fishing string!
o
Because slings are lightweight and portable and won’t bog down your survival kit!
·
Providing more velocity and distance than a slingshot. Slings are
significantly different than a sling-shot
and provide far more knockout power than a slingshot. This particular sling can comfortably sling rocks that are around 1-1/2 times bigger than a golf ball.
·
Teaching the background of biblical stories: 1 Sam. 17 (David & Goliath); Judges 20:16 (Benjamites who were remarkably accurate with slinging stones)

While slings are fun, keep in mind that slings should not be treated like toys unless you are slinging large marshmallows. Always keep safety first, and look out for others!
