The Scopeshot

General Sports out of Lawrenceburg, Indiana produced this famous slingshot. The pistol-grip style frame is made of polished cast aluminium. The flat bands made of natural gum rubber are attached by the "match in loop"-method, the pouch is held in place by loops through holes in the bands. The circle on top of the frame should act as a sight, so it is not intentioned to be shot in a 90 degree angle. The whole setup was sold with 250 "deteriorating pellets that literally explode when they hit" and a shooting manual. The Scope-Shot was, together with the Wham-O, the most-popular slingshot in its time.
