Will do Paul, might be the nearest I get to firearms this side of the British government reintroducing conscription!Keep that coin in your pocket when using it. You might just turn into Mr Wick with that thing .

How're you finding those two David?Broke the band on this one the other day. Rebanded it and plinked a bit.View attachment 2496866
It might be that your bands and ammo aren't well-matched, ie you're using heavier bands than necessary for the ammo I fire almost entirely OTT, but even with TTF, I don't get fork hits. I did once hit the back of my hand though, which wasn't fun!I seem to get more fork whacks with a TTF than I do with a OTT. Don't know what I'm doing wrong. Anyone got some insight to share?
Great with the Scout X. Having some getting use to the TTF Gamekeeper since I usually fire OTT.How're you finding those two David?
I've hit the back of my hand before. Once really bad. Don't care to repeat that.It might be that your bands and ammo aren't well-matched, ie you're using heavier bands than necessary for the ammo I fire almost entirely OTT, but even with TTF, I don't get fork hits.

Looks like fun!Took my Axiom Occularis PRO out to the woods, the other day, with my pal Matt, and his two kids

Yeah, I imagine All my Gamekeeper catapults are set up for OTT, but he actually prefers TTFGreat with the Scout X. Having some getting use to the TTF Gamekeeper since I usually fire OTT.
I hit mine with a 14mm cannonball, and double bands! Amazed I didn't break it!I've hit the back of my hand before. Once really bad. Don't care to repeat that.
It was, I wish I could get out moreLooks like fun!
Nice David, I don't think I've seen that model before I managed to get some time with the Axiom Occularis Pro Paul Jakeywax31 sent me, today
Thanks Jack! How you like the Axiom?Nice David, I don't think I've seen that model before I managed to get some time with the Axiom Occularis Pro Paul Jakeywax31 sent me, today
I like it a lot David, it shoots well I had another session before going to bed last night I put some light Wasp bands on it, and shortened them slightly, so it shoots really fast Generally, I prefer their older Theraband Gold bands though, which they left a bit longer. They cut them shorter now, and while that's not a problem with the short bands, it can be with the heavier ones. I've had some band-sets, from other suppliers, which are FAR too short for me, and so unusable I keep meaning to start tying my own, but a set of bands usually lasts me agesThanks Jack! How you like the Axiom?
What have you got coming buddy?hope my new catapult and knife (2 items; not another combination) gets here soon.
Small (under 5" tall) Sub $3.⁰⁰ white resin flat band that got great reviews over on the singshot forum.What have you got coming buddy?
Sounds like a bargain!Small (under 5" tall) Sub $3.⁰⁰ white resin flat band that got great reviews over on the singshot forum.
No idea what the knife is. An anon. member messaged me saying he sent me a knife, but didn't mention what it is.
Who knows? Perhaps someday I'll mess up and get a slingshot I can consistantly hit what I "think" I am aiming at.
OH!!! Also have another 100 nine mm steel balls inbound.

Thanks David Yeah, with some of the heavier band sets, and tubes and square rubber, they can be quite expensive too. I do have a long reach. When I was in the opticians yesterday, my prescription has actually been decreased in strength, which is something to do with my long arms apparently! Still, it's those feelers with the short arms and deep pockets you have to look out for!Glad you like Axiom. I've noticed some of those short bands. Some are almost to short for me.
