I think this is a barnett wrist rocket or similar. I'm sure you guys will know exactly...
got it for nothing because it had no bands or handle so...........

The plan is to attach a whisker biscut and some para cord instead of a pouch, with little loop and use archery draw/trigger release for arrows. I have 4+ meters of theraband blk tube so should be good for rubber for a while...

Thanks brother. did you see my little tribute to your secret santa gift to me in 'Home made slingshots'? Not quite as cool as yours but I like it for my first attempt at a natural.

I really like that! It reminds me of the stock/grip on a competition target rifle.
