Snare knots are your friend.
They allow quick band/tube changes.
The Boynton-Banger has shot an 80 grain (5.2g) marble at 234 fps.
Incidentally, you can reverse the rifle and slide the fork instead of the trigger.
The bands are attached to the fork by simply wrapping the nylon around the 1/4" bolts.
The snare knot and the bolt wrap allow for perfect rubber length adjustment.

Thanks.
Shooting a triggered rifle that you draw with 2 arms offers some health advantages:
Prevents wrist strain and Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, avoids tennis elbow,
A rifle is Inherently more accurate than a slingshot.
If we could fold it up and carry it in our pockets, it would be perfect!
