Window shopping, once again, hmm.

This is quite unique in terms of frame design, but I wonder what the forward facing loop is intended for - other than maybe preventing hand slaps?

Any ideas?

Looking at the pics it seems to be marketed as a self defense tool/slingshot. Looks cool though

Indeed. Something in the direction of a "knuckle duster" with a rather pointed grip end. A bit unusual to say the least.

This seller has a better rating than the other one:

Well, a glass breaker would make it legal, but not if it's a defense tool of sorts: knuckle dusters are totally illegal where I am. That said, it would be a nice extra in the slingshot collection because it is so unusual. 304 stainless steel all the way through...nice.

I think that this is nothing more than delights of marketers. Suitable for shooting and not suitable for self-defense. For both versions, a push-button lock is required to instantly detach the fork from the handle. No bully will wait for you to remove the connecting screw.

Interesting though that they sell something like that in China, where everything is tightly controlled: "but officer, it's a slingshot...". In theory, one could mount a mini stabilizer in the threaded section of the loop element, a bit like on an archery bow - albeit that this probably makes no difference on a slingshot anyway.

Looks like a reverse slingshot, you keep ahold of the pouch and hit the attacker with the steel 😇
