Controversial Topic And Poll: Brown Bear & Slingshots

[keithcatfish]

I think the inevitable follow up question is:

How do match grade slingshot projectiles perform on bears or should we stick to bonded projectiles only.

 

[Len Backus]

You are going to absolutely wreck the congeniality factor on this forum if you push the controversy envelope too far!

It's a Possibility

Do you have a prototype Len? Can you post pics?

No way!! If the wrong people knew you could kill a bear with a slingshot, they will most certainly restrict or ban the sale of all slingshots and ammo.

 

[Len Backus]

Do you have a prototype Len?

Maybe I do, maybe I don't. Not until the patent is approved.

 

[shorty]

You betcha,have at it! Just one caveat, restrict ammunition to swedish meatballs,frozen if you wish,for better penetration. That should make it more um sporting,thats right ,sporting.

 

[Backwoods]

Definitely, and I am very excited to see what kind of ammo everyone can come up with that is slingshot propelled to achieve this task, we'll need a reloading room totally dedicated to this venture! I will bring the camera!

 

[dbhostler]

Maybe I do, maybe I don't. Not until the patent is approved.

Well then, can you release some ballistic data, or is that restricted too?

Top Secret!

Top Secret!

Well, I guess we'll just have to read about it in Sling Magazine. Tell me Len, who's gonna write the article?

With one condition

That I get to be back up with my .375 H&H

 

[hogwild]

Did I miss something, is Kirby working on something new? An APS slingshot perhaps?

Slingshots

Len, I don't know if you are checking on us to see if we are reading the polls or not but this is funny no matter what anyone else says.

 

[Len Backus]

Rem, yes, I read them all. Funniest thing is a lot of them, especially those who made the early responses, felt this was a real issue.
