Quick Overview

Medieval Slingshot is a decorative item, yet it has some functionality. The slingshot is 9 1/2" long. This ancient weapon of defense and sport was used throughout the centuries from Rome and Greece to Medieval Europe. The Medieval Slingshot is made in Italy.


Slingshot is often also called shanghai or a catapult. It is a small hand-powered projectile weapon with a pocket for holding the projectile. The lighter the projectile, the faster it will move, and the more damage it will create. The material for the rubbers is critical. The best widely-available material is latex rubber surgical tubing. It lasts about six months before it needs to be replaced. It can be attached to the frame and packet by stretching it over a metal rod of the correct diameter. The weight of the pocket is critical as well, because if the pocket is very heavy, the slingshot will be weak. The best pockets are made of soft leather, which does not fray.
