Two shots: Homemade Over-Under Sling-X-Bow

I have invested about 8 hours of work to make my first two-shot slingshot crossbow.

I still don't have access to my welding gear, lathe and mill, so I had to do it in wood.

I wanted it to be as strong as my most powerful onces - but per "barrel". So it had to be really sturdy, bulky and a bit bizarre. But it works like a charm.

The trigger mechanism allows me to shoot one barrel after the other or two at the same time. A really, really simple lever serves as thr trigger.

Due to the necessary thickness of the rubber involved, I had to make the fork really high. But that is not so bad as this weapon has to be cocked like a crossbow, with your foot stomping down on the rear stock and both hands pulling up the fork. Also the "barrel" had to be aluminum, thin wood is not strong enough for this DOUBLE HUNTER BAND shooting device.

The concept works, and once done in steel, it won't be bulky at all.
A "The Slingshot Channel" production!

I'm very very impressed with that design. You need a patent.

[JoergSprave]

@SissingPyd Why a patent? I have no commercial plans and actually like to see others following my design ideas. It is a great hobby. No need to involve lawyers.

[JoergSprave]

@ccrider7440 Well, let me tell you that ballistic gelatine is about as tasteless as your comments. Now please move on to someone else's comment pages, come back when your trollwork has sufficiently improved to be some kind of entertaining.

Could you make a really powerful one that uses a winch to pull the fork forward and tighten the bands?
