The idea is not new, The Slingshot Channel brought a shotgun slingshot as early as April 2010. But since then, a lot has happened – stronger bands and the superior butterfly style allowed much heavier ammo.

In 2010, .177 pellets (4,5mm) were used – now, 10 mm (.40″) and even 12 mm (.47″) steel balls are fired. This required a special formed pouch made from thin Kydex plastics, and also a fully protected “armored” slingshot.

See the scattering of the heavy balls on a white board! In comparison, a 30mm steel ball is fired.
