I bought an Agile Toucan from a guy on a slingshot forum. I really like it. It's small and fits easily in my pocket. It is also very well made and shoots good. I will be ordering a second one soon.
My Iron Hero arrived yesterday. The first thing I noticed is the machining quality, fit and finish which is all very well done. The new ones (at least mine) have a stainless steel roller and the roller arms are lacking the little tabs shown sticking out on the sides. I assume these were for an aiming reference. It took me a while to find my aiming reference point on the frame for side shooting (gangster style) but once I got it dialed in, it shoots as well as anything I have. Overall I like it and I am glad to add it to my collection. It is very heavy for a slingshot being of such robust build and all stainless steel. I will most likely only shoot this one in my back yard and not take it out much in favor of lighter models that are easy to pocket. I would buy again.
I love the ergos, it fits like a custom made slingshot without the bulkiness. The butterfly extensions allow you to choke up, therefore allowing more powerful bands. I think this is one of the better slingshots from dankung. I think the only think that would make this better would be titanium;). Hint hint
There's only 80 of these in stock (at the time of writing this review) don't miss out and buy one right away, its such a well designed slingshot, its powerful and very accurate and most of all it's very cheap, its a steal at the listed price which includes shipping, trust me you won't be disappointed, I use mine everyday, it makes holes in food tins with 8mm and 9.5mm steel balls.
The quality of this pouch is amazing.. you will not believe me, I am still shooting the first one I got with the angry owl! I have over 5000 shots out of it, and it is still in shape! Crazy material, very nice.
As an avid collector, I just could not resist ordering the Butterfly Mini Sling.
Like it's big brother (the Butterfly), the flaring "earlobe" is it's most distinguishing feature..
It is more pronounced on the Mini in order to provide additional thumb support given its reduced size, overall width of 95 mm. (83 length).
A comfortable and safe shoot despite it's diminutive siz,e, even in full butterfly mode.
Mine was beautifully wrapped (two toned, red and black)., and came banded with 1632 looped tubes that I could actually use with ease (another first).
Well done DK!
I love this little shooter. It's small and ready to go anywhere, anytime. This is quite similar in design to The Black Eagle, only this one is a little shorter in the handle making it even easier to conceal into a pocket. The fork design is a little more curved than the Eagle so making this catapult a little more "forgiving". Wrapped in para-cord, I provides a solid grip onto a powerful pocket slingshot.
WOW!!! What a nice little shooter with plenty of "handle" to grip onto. Slim in style but with a little longer handle, this slingshot is easy to stick into the pocket and bring anywhere with you. I appreciate the pronounced protrusions on top of the forks. For anyone who's had a band slip off of the forks, you'll appreciate how this slingshot keeps things in line for you. Somewhat similar in design to The Tiny Ghost, this one is wrapped with rubber tubing giving a great purchase on the slingshot.
I received this through a promotion offered by Dankung. It works very well for replacement for some of my Western style "wrist rockets". As well, I've put some onto a couple of OTT catapults created by some Western sling shot makers who seem to like to put the flat bands on all their slingshots.
WOW!!! What a nice catapult! I like the wide width to the forks. It's a beautifully crafted, solid piece of construction. Feel very solid in the hand. The aiming points are truly helpful when using aiming style shooting as opposed to instinctive shooting style. The bands that came with it would need Jorge Spare to draw back, but putting on a milder set of bands made it enjoyably shootable. A great addition to anyone's collection.
The first time I had to insert the smallest of bbs to plug up the end of a tube, I thought I'd never accomplish what needed to be done. The bb slipped and slopped all over the place and I was covered in sweat just trying to get that damn little bb into that damn little tube.
Then, along came the bb installer and all that grief just went away.
Just the "plink" you hear when you connect with the target is most rewarding. I've purchased both sizes. The 4cm works great and stands up well to 3/8" steel balls from a double thereaband gold ss.
On-order I have a set of the 3cm targets and will advise upon receipt.
This replacement piece is designed for the "platinum" CatchBox, however, I bought one and just fixed it into my "economy" CatchBox and it works just like a champ. Lets me shoot a little heavier shot and/or bands and not risk causing any damage to the Box itself.
I bought one of these thinking that it would "monsterously" big for my medium-sized western hand. Nope! It fits perfectly. If it's too small for your ring finger, try it on your pinkie. After all, the magnet goes on the inside. If it's too big ... try your index finger.
I've got my second one on order now.
I received this as a promotional item from Dankung with purchase of a Panther. Great little product I've seen other "banding rigs" that are much larger and more cumbersone, but I don't think that they'll do any better of a job than this nifty little machine.
I've used this indoors and outdoors. Tabs are conveniently located on the outside to allow it to be hung-up, or just set it on the ground and shoot away. Inside, I clip a pair of laundry pant hangers onto the top outside edges and it hangs into a closet just like it was made for it. I also purchased the "replacement" back-stop (even though it's intended for "the other" catch box sold on Dankung.com), and added it onto the back-stop that came with the kit and this makes the whole thing much more robust. I added one of the metal target discs (also, available on Dankung.com) and this CatchBox becomes a very rewarding device!.
PS: I place a magnet inside on the bottom (just let it lie there) and when the steel shot goes in, it's immediately attracted to the magnet which makes reclaiming your discharged ammo a snap.
I guess I've had more trouble than most getting used to this creative design. I like it very much and believe that once I can get a lighter set of bands on it, it should shoot (for me) even better. Being someone who likes "unique" and "different" things ... this fits the bill!
Solidly made steel ss. I found the para-cord wrapping to be a little looser than what I'd like, but that's not a deal-breaker. Yes, this is on the large size. I have medium-sized western hands so I can get a good pinch-grip on the hooks at the top, but with my hand size, I'm unable to get a good purchase on the handle itself. All of this fades away when I start shooting... This thing is extremely accurate. I believe that the Agile Toucan might be a better fit and I have one on order. Will provide review of the Agile Toucan after it arrive and is used.
The plastic catapult the Dark Bat is superb, one of the best catapults I have used!!

I bought one of these "plastic" X6's just to see what it's like.
Now, I cant' wait to get a metal one, better yet, maybe an Antelope!!!
