ABSTRACT:
A slingshot includes a housing formed of releasably separable longitudinal sections. The sections define an upwardly open slot extending fore-to-aft along the housing. A pair of arms project laterally outwardly from a front part of the housing to define anchor points located laterally outwardly and above the slot. An elastic spring has forward ends thereof coupled to the anchor points and converging rearwardly therefrom and above the slot. An plunger is slidably disposed within the slot. A cord is connected between the elastic spring and the plunger so that release of the elastic spring from a tensioned condition causes the plunger to be propelled forwardly within the slot and eject a projectile located thereahead. An underarm butt may be provided at the rear of the housing to provide stabilization for the slingshot during actuation.
