Varmints Beware!
Love this slingshot!Living in the city, we have occasional rodent problems where you cannot solve the same way as you can in the country. This is a nice alternative for that problem. It has great accuracy, if you know what you are doing. Form fitting over the wrist for additional control is nice. The textured rubber grip is comfortable and also provides a nice weight to it so it doesn't fell like you are holding air. Everything comes together in the package, with some ammo, but you'll want to check local laws on what can be used. I purchased some additional frangible ammo to help mitigate any ricochets. As this is a Barnett product, you can't really go wrong on the price either.

Perfect Mix of Power, Precision, and Fun
I’ve been having an absolute blast with the Barnett King Rat Slingshot, and it’s easily earned a five-star rating from me! This thing is a perfect mix of power, precision, and fun, whether you’re a kid or just a kid at heart like me. Right out of the box, it comes with everything you need: a strong power band, a brushed leather pouch, and some slingshot ammo to get started. I was hitting targets with surprising accuracy after just a few tries, and the power behind each shot is impressive—great for plinking cans or even small game if that’s your thing. The design feels solid and comfortable in hand, and it’s compact enough to toss in a pocket or bag for outdoor adventures.The leather pouch is smooth and well-made, holding the ammo securely, and the power band delivers a satisfying snap with every launch. I love that it’s versatile enough for both adults and kids to enjoy—my nephew and I have been competing for hours, and it’s held up flawlessly. Barnett’s reputation shines through here; it’s clear this isn’t some flimsy toy but a quality tool built for real use.Pros:• Packs a powerful punch with the included power band• Compact and portable, perfect for on-the-go fun• Brushed leather pouch feels premium and works great• Comes with ammo, so you’re ready to shoot right away• Sturdy build that’s suitable for all agesCons:• The power band can be a bit tough to pull back for younger kids at first• Ammo supply is limited—stock up if you plan to shoot a lotThis slingshot has reignited my love for simple, hands-on fun, and it’s been a hit with everyone who’s tried it. For the price, you’re getting top-notch quality and endless entertainment. Five stars, hands down—Barnett nailed it with the King Rat!

Worth it
This broke after a few uses(my husband is hard on equipment), but I’d buy another of this exact one. It was easy to use and had great accuracy! Be careful that nothing is anywhere near you as whatever put into the pouch will go at a fast speed & far distance!

One eyed review
Pardon the spelling of this review, but I’m writing it with one eye, the kids are so accurate with the slingshot. It took out one of my eyes. Let that be a lesson to you. Be accurate and wear safety glasses but otherwise the slingshot does what it’s supposed to do.

Powerful
Very nice tool. I grafted one to a spinning reel to aid in the installation of ham radio antennas. Launches a 2oz sinker and 10# line over 70 feet up.

Cheap version of marketed pictures of sling
I'm an avid sligshot hunter, I saw these slings and researched them a couple months. In all the product images there is a sling with a great looking durable textured finish with engraved shock absorbers. The product I got is so off color and cheaply finished. The finish scrat ched off with the cloth in a backpack leaving cheap .white plastic. The shock absorbers are cheap black plastic not engraved alloy like you see. The wrist brace retention nubs have wore/ crumbled after folding them twice. That worries me that the whole frame is weak enough to snap/ explode after a few shots. The bands are very strong so this isn't for most young people. I basically paid $30 for a cheap white plastic sling that is crumbling appart. If this is a " second generation" product run and there are any slings like what's pictured I would like to have one to try but this sling is sketchy and cheap and the paint rubs off.
