But the batman catapult has a slight fault, The fault being the grooves on the forks are cut too deep resulting in very nasty hand
slaps, I have rectified the problem my end by building up the groove with electrical tape, now no hand slaps are occurring. I have tested this with tubes and flat band all is ok now. with mine but for future sales you may want to check this out,

I have three Dankung slingshots as well as slingshots manufactured here in the USA. Gotta say Dankung is my go to slingshot. Visually appealing, super accurate, and built like a tank - you can't go wrong!

I've been getting Dankung tubes for about 4 years now. It seems that in recent times tube stiffness has changed. I don't know if this was directed by Dankung to their vendor for a new choice of targeting, or if this represents a loss of control by their tube vendor. Either way, it leaves me not knowing what to order to get the stiffness I expect and want. Here's some history that reflects the stiffness variation. I use tube density (e.g., in grams per inch of length) to reflect stiffness-- e.g., 2 identical bands in parallel will have twice the stiffness (or force) and twice the density. Note that there is not enough accuracy in measuring tube diameters to reflect reproducibility.
1745 tube densities vs. time:
0.3079 (2012), 0.318 (6/2013), 0.3385 (2/2015), 0.3400 (6/2015), 0.3168 (9/2016)
2040 tube densities vs time:
0.247 (6/2013), 0.2336 (2/2015), 0.2019 (7/2016)
2050 tube densities vs time:
0.3981 (6/2013), 0.4049 (6/2013), 0.375 (5/2016).
The last order of (standard) 2040 I received was 20% lower density than previous ones and the pull was so wimpy it was useless to me. 1745 long ago had a density of about 0.31, then it was consistently raised to about 0.34. My last order was back down to about 0.31, and is so weak it seems like a different tube type, and is almost useless to me.
I need more 1745 with density ~0.34. So how do I order this? At some point, companies need to spec their products to both their customers and their vendors. Density is very easy to measure and I hope Dankung will spec it before I'm driven to look at other vendors (until recently I've been very pleased with Dankung).
This is a really revolutionary slingshot, very very versatile. and it's pocket size for me. I think it's Sprave's best work among his 120+ designs.
The Ergonomic OTT slingshot is one of my favorite slingshots! It is quite small and pocketable and therefore a good EDC frame. It has a slot on the target side and after training a bit, the band changing is quite easy and fast. You don't need any tools or extra rubber bands for attching the bandset. I really like the ergonomic curves of the slingshot. Combined with the wrapped handle it has a fantastic grip. A beautiful shooter for a good price! I would buy it again!

I love DanKung slingshots and I love jorg, But I wasn't thrilled about this slingshot. The handle is very large and if you put your own skills on it it makes it even larger. The forks may be very versatile but are not elegant nor comfortable in the pocket. Additionally the para cord wrapped handle is uncomfortable with prolong shooting . This is a durable slingshot and revolutionary but is not my go to. I'd recommend the standard titanium ergonomic slingshot or standard steel ergonomic slingshot, or jungle Hunter.
Compact, light weight, accurate and attractive, I carry my black bat on most days, I shoot 6mm and 8mm steel balls, its the best fun I've had in years, I recommend buying it when it's back in stock.
