hi mate,,ive just bought a new diablo pro,but...i cant work out how to fit the arm brace?..its too loose one way,and the other end wont fit cause of two lugs sticking out...please can you help,,ive thrown it accross the room already!!...cheers,and all the best..wayne.

@uksniper1 to be honest the pro-diablos are total crap-the arm braces on all the ones ive seen are loose as you say and as they only fit one way theres nothing u can do-barnet products are made for cheapness and dont live up to the famous barnet name anymore-the sight and the stabiliser bars are pointless-i gave mine away after a week and opted for a 'gamekeeper catapult' theyre twice as powerful as pro diablos and put out 250fps and fit nicely in the pocket for concealment-regards john

@uksniper1 get an air rifle lol much much easier wayne

how does the feathers of a real arrow fit through the tube?

[we66y357]

@vaughan4082 yes thats a good question since i made this vid i have given away the pro-diablo as it was way to big to carry and conceal so i never got around to trying a normal feathered arrow with it - but i guess it should fit through or you could always attatch a wider tube or plain old loop to the forks - john

[vaughan4082]

@we66y357 cool thanks what do you think tho? its a nice sling in my opinion anyway its fairly accurate and very powerful :) i like your slingbow design other people have but keyrings with elastic bands between the forks and stuff but yours seems quite sturdy how did you rate it as a slingbow im not too bothered with hiding it.i just want to use it for hunting

[we66y357]

@vaughan4082 the tube design is fixed with plastic cable ties so real sturdy it can also be used as a standard slingshot without removing the tube so fairly compatible whereas a ring attachment would limit its use as a slingshot due to the fork gap being obstructed by the ring-barnet are ok and the diablo gives awesome power(although chrony readings prove theraband gold is more powerful)so its personal choice yet again-as a slingbow with correct size arrow it would be a true hunter always-john

@we66y357 those lugs go into that slot between the hole you have to take the screw out first took me like 10 min to figure it out

@we66y357

lol,,i had a modded crossman ratty(build vid of it on my channel) a few weeks ago but sold it when all the rats seem to have been taken care of,but...yep they back again! lol,but the pellets did ricochet a bit,so i thought that a slingshot with soft ammo(clay,plastercine etc) would still hit hard but splat on walls instead of making me leg it when a miss happens lol,as i have to hunt in our old barns and sheds.

all the best mate,,wayne.
