slings
A sling is a projectile weapon typically used to throw a blunt projectile such as a stone, clay, or lead "sling-bullet". It is also known as the shepherd's sling. Someone who specialises in using slings is called a slinger.
A sling has a small cradle or pouch in the middle of two lengths of cord. The sling stone is placed in the pouch. The middle finger or thumb is placed through a loop on the end of one cord, and a tab at the end of the other cord is placed between the thumb and forefinger. The sling is swung in an arc, and the tab released at a precise moment. This frees the projectile to fly to the target. The sling essentially works by extending the length of a human arm, thus allowing stones to be thrown much farther than they could be by hand.
The sling is inexpensive and easy to build. It has historically been used for hunting game and in combat. Film exists of Spanish Civil War combatants using slings to throw grenades over buildings into enemy positions on the opposite street. Today the sling is of interest as a wilderness survival tool and an improvised weapon.

So it looks like a lot of the big tacticool makers have dropped their 3 point sling lineups. I have an old Magpul S3 three point sling I wanted to duplicate for another build, and it does not seem to exist anymore. Their current "S3 gen 2" is a two/single point combo sling. I am not sure that is...

I keep a box on top of the safe with slings for my hunting rifles. I was moving some rifles around and it dawned on me....why do I have a sling for each rifle? I have the same 2 slings x8. I can see leaving a sling on the HD/SD carbine or leaving your M1907 slings on milsurp stuff. But the...
