Trumark BAT

Sam said:

As you all know I am a long supporter of all things Trumark. While I primarily shoot flat banded slingshots (A+, Saunders, Flatband, Homebrew ... etc) I still love to shoot the trumark stuff. This is a true American company that produces excellent slingshots. Every slingshot I own from them is awesome. However I am looking into buying the BAT. I like the idea of the flashlight. It makes for a great night shooter. Has anyone tried the bat?

I've never owned or even shot one before but I'm afraid I've heard nothing but bad things about it - I personally wouldn't buy one.

What were the band things you heard about it?

Apparently the structure of the frame isn't very strong and is prone to warping even with medium bands. If you want a manufactured slingshot I would always suggest a Saunders.

Oh I already own many Saunders and Trumark products and support both companies. I think I will go ahead and buy a BAT anyway and do a full review here. I already know that for the money a Saunders Hawk is a better buy but ...
