The Pocket Shot
The Pocket Shot is the evolution of the slingshot. Its patented, circular design allows users to load and shoot different projectiles at two to three times the rate of a regular slingshot. Perfect for hunters and recreational use, its tiny size allows you to keep it in your pocket, tackle box or backpack while storing ammo in its watertight compartment. It shoots projectiles up to 350 feet per second; recommended ammo includes 1/4-inch to 5/16-inch steel slugs, marbles, small paintballs (0.4 cal) and Airsoft (bb’s are not recommended as they will tear the pouch). The newly designed high-impact inner ring is indestructible, and is guaranteed not to chip, crack or break during normal use. The outer ring and cap are strong and durable to handle the harshest outdoor conditions. Created and built in the USA. Note: the Pocket Shot is not a toy. Anyone under the age of 16 should have adult supervision.
