I generally have a few of these around that I made but just for something to keep in the pack, and only choosing one, (besides a handgun) should it be the folding slingshot with 200 shot or the 26" blowgun with 2 dozen broadhead darts?
Both are effective, accurate and super lightweight but I keep going back and forth on which one to keep packed.
The blowgun is more accurate but the slingshot has more immediate stopping power.

Any thoughts?

if you cant hit the squirrel the first time, hes gonna run when you miss and you're gonna be hungry

So far, the largest game I've taken with a blowdart has been a rabbit and with the wristrocket it was a turkey.
With squirrels it can go either way. Sometimes you can get off a second shot before they take off and other times they vanish into the canopy out of range.

I was thinking it was an interesting topic and am getting tired of talking about the Regulator at this point. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />

a small .22 might be the best choice

and i definitely hear you on the regulator...

Guns not being an option in this case. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
I could just say that I'll always have my S&W.500 on me and forget the whole back-up idea but where's the fun in that?

o wow you have one?! thats so cool...



idk, id have to go with the blowgun, unless youre efficient with the slingshot

It's just the 4" for shoulder carry. I'd post pics but my camera sat in the truck overnight and it died.
Even the LCD on the back cracked in 2 places.

?! what the heck happened?

!![censored] that sucks

I won't mention any names, but I hear blow guns don't work too good on crows. Their wings seem to be built our of SR-77 or something. I'd go slingshot.
