ReadyMan Arm Cannon Survivor Sling

The READYMAN Survivor Sling (a.k.a. arm cannon or shepard's sling) is a modern incarnation of one of the oldest man made weapons in history.  Manufactured in the USA using 6 feet of survival cord, and ballistic nylon webbing, the Survivor Sling can hurl baseball-size projectiles at just over 100 mph! Not bad for a weapon that weighs only 1 ounce...

We won't lie, these things take practice, lots of practice, but they are FUN!  An experienced user can launch projectiles well over 1,000 feet, and easily kill small to medium size game with skillfully placed shots.

Think these things couldn't be used for self-defense?  Let's ask our friend Goliath for his thoughts on that. Oh, wait...  Nevermind!  

The truth is, this thing is just too dang fun to NOT carry because it takes up almost no space, weighs practically nothing, provides a back-up means of hunting and defense using ammo found in nature, AND you get 6 feet of useful paracord!  Not just any paracord, mind you, but survival cord that includes a strand each of fishing line, 30 awg wire, and jute tinder that can all be removed without compromising the sling.  

Since you already have a fire starter and a ReadyMan Wilderness Survival Card as part of your EDC - you can now hunt, fish, start a fire, and work on constructing shelter with less than 2 oz. of gear!

One last thing...  If you have a dog, you just found the single best ball thrower on the market!  Those other ball "chuckers" don't even come close to the distance you can launch tennis balls with these things!
