Paracord sling

Flash · **on:** July 20, 2008, 09:01:23 PM

Folks,

Money is tight yet again (must stop buying multitools,must stop buying multitools,must stop buying multitools

So I am turning my hand to craft items. Anyone fancy a handmade (crafted by true Englishman) paracord sling.

I am asking for £12.50 inc p +p to uK address (Outside UK PM me for postage) for each sling and you have a choice of colours from:

Black
OD Green
Desert Cam
Woodland Cam
Coyote Brown
Tan
Blue
Purple

Easy to carry, fun to use good for hunting or plinking.

Either way let me know and thanks for looking.

Sorry mate I have no budget atm (in fact it's your fault as I'm saving for a Kershaw ET, so I withdraw that apology

).

I may however start producing cheap, inferior quality, Leicestershire knock-offs and selling them for £9.99

Seriously, that looks a clever thing that Flash - hope you sell a few!!

any ammo or other projectiles with it

?

Flash · **Reply #3 on:** July 20, 2008, 09:26:48 PM

Use rocks, marbles, coins, etc etc (small furry animals is a definite no no

)

Tarrodemierda · **Reply #4 on:** July 20, 2008, 09:31:27 PM

use small LM Squirts

.

nope,i like small dritters and i woulndt kill a thing that i wouldnt eat.i think shooting squirrels etc for fun show some sadistic sides of human beings.

pm on its way,mister.

This thing is GREAT, I can't wait to use it properly, it's big enough to sling half bricks

I can't see how you exactly use it.

I think you need to do a video Mike.

How accurate can you get with it?

I have, and I found no references to any tall guy from Gillingham.

You need a tripod, or a Jack.
