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 using a beautiful 4-5 oz. Kodiak black oil tanned leather(.062"-.078" or 1/16" - 5/64 thick)
. This gives the suede side of the leather a deeper black color, and the pouch a thicker, more robust grip.
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 new solid brass grommets (see photo)
The cord is made from a sturdy Mil Spec 7 Strand Type III Nylon 550 Parachute Cord. Additionally,
DUE TO THE HIGH DEMAND FOR DESERT CAMO PARACORD & THESE SLINGS, THIS SLING WILL BE OUTFITTED WITH EITHER RATTLESNAKE DESERT CAMO (see picture 7, left) OR GOLDEN SAND DESERT CAMO (see picture 7, right).
Slings can be excellent for:
Survival situations!
Because rocks are almost everywhere (and therefore not provided in this auction), you’ll have access to an enormous (and cheap) supply of ammo!
Because the inside of the parachute cord contains 7 white strands of strong nylon material that can be used as fishing string!
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 at least 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!
***Custom quantities available upon request***
Always be aware of your surroundings when using a sling and never use a sling in such a way that a mis-aimed rock could strike a person. User assumes full responsibility for the safe use of the sling.
