SLINGSHOT

If you've spent any time in the slingshot hobby world lately, you've probably run into the term repeating slingshot — sometimes called an auto-loading slingshot. Instead of manually loading a ball into the pouch every single shot, you press a button, a ball drops into place, and you're ready to draw. It's a small mechanical change that makes a big difference once you're shooting more than a handful of rounds at a time.
We make two versions of this idea, built for two very different kinds of shooters. This guide walks through both, so you can figure out which one actually fits what you're looking for.
What Makes a Slingshot "Repeating"?
A traditional slingshot is a one-shot-at-a-time tool — you reach into a pocket or pouch, place a ball by hand, draw, release, repeat. A repeating slingshot adds a magazine: a tube that holds several steel balls in a row, feeding them automatically into the pouch every time you press a button. The result is a much faster rhythm between shots, which is exactly why the design has taken off in the collector and target-practice community over the last few years.
Both of our kits use this same core mechanism. Where they differ is in materials, price, and who they're really built for.
Option 1: The 3D-Printed Repeating Slingshot Kit ($79)
This is our entry point into the hobby — a repeating slingshot built layer by layer on a high-precision 3D printer, finished in a swirled pastel "macaron" color gradient that makes every unit slightly one of a kind.
Highlights:
Push-button auto-loading, same core mechanism as our Pro kit
Durable, weatherproof PETG construction
Compatible with standard 8mm steel balls
1636 flatband rubber bands
Ships with 3 spare magazines and 2 magnetic pouch/band sets
Includes 2 belt holsters — one for the slingshot body, one that racks all three magazines — so the whole kit clips onto any standard belt
This is the kit we'd point a first-time repeating-slingshot shooter toward. It's priced to try the hobby without a big commitment, and the belt-carry system means you can bring the whole setup with you without a bag.
Option 2: The CNC Aluminum Pro Kit ($129)
This is the same auto-loading concept, rebuilt in metal for shooters who want a heavier-duty, more precision-engineered frame — and it adds a feature you won't find on most slingshots at all.
Highlights:
CNC-machined from anodized ADC12 aluminum alloy, with a stainless steel cover plate
Dual-pulley draw system for a smoother, more consistent pull
A built-in stainless steel glass breaker on the tail of each magazine — genuine everyday-carry utility, not just a hobby piece
Compatible with standard 8mm steel balls
1636 flatband rubber bands
Ships with 2 magazines and 3 magnetic pouch/band sets
This one's for shooters who've already got the basics down and want something that feels — and performs — like a precision tool rather than a toy. The glass breaker in particular makes this a genuinely dual-purpose item: part hobby slingshot, part emergency tool that lives on your belt or in your bag.

Which One Should You Get?
If you're new to repeating slingshots, or you like the idea of a fun, collectible, belt-carry kit at a lower price point, start with the 3D-printed kit. It has everything you need to get into the hobby, including a full carry system.
If you already know you like shooting repeating slingshots and want something more solid in the hand — or you just like the idea of a tool that does double duty as an emergency glass breaker — the CNC Aluminum Pro kit is the one worth the upgrade.
And if you really can't decide: a lot of our customers end up with both. The 3D-printed kit for casual, take-anywhere sessions, and the Pro kit as the one that lives on the belt for serious practice.
A Quick Safety Note
Both kits launch projectiles and are intended for users 18 years and older. Always shoot in a controlled area with a proper backstop, never aim at people or animals, and check your local laws before ordering — slingshot regulations vary by country and region, particularly across parts of Europe, the UK, and Australia.
