the best survival weapon-a slingshot.......

Got 2, as well as 2 compound bows...and lots of arrows!

I would put snares right up there with a slingshot if not even higher...I got 2 to 300 of them made at all times..I can carry 300 of them in one hand and they weigh maybe 8 or 9 lbs all together...they are very simple to make and will snare and take down about any animal..I have even caught birds with them by accident...rabbits ,squirrels, deer,ect...deadly

take a look

yep - they work great with ball berrings or marbles

I actually have one in my BOB, with an extra band... Good thing also is you don't have to have a large supply of stainless ammo on hand because you can find ammunition everywhere... Within a few hours a person can be accurate enough to hit a quarter at 15 - 20 yards....

i use one to put my dipole antenna in the trees :)

Okay, Dave...

go try a sling, the leather kind with a good round rock.

they are worth having but realy only good for birds.good for defence to,against humans.

humans hate shang hai

My grandfather told me how during the depression he would get rabbits with a slingshot. Gotta be good for squirrels too. But you can't fish with it!

get handy with a bow. you can bag rabbits and even elk if you wish. you can always get your arrow back and making new ones isnt rocket science. i think a bow, once good at it would be a much better choice then a sling shot

the best survival weapon is your brain, slingshot is a valuable tool though

indeed

Agreed...

I agree. But a slingshot fits nicely in a bugout bag.

And it hasn't been mentioned: slingshots are silent. In some survival situations you don't want a loud gun to notify others that you are present. Bows are silent too, of course.

Here you go.
