Hrawk, very clean construction. <br><br>But I do see an issue.<br><br>Loading this weapon will be dangerous. The fork is non sliding, same for the lock. I tried this, and it is very hard to squeeze the loaded pouch between the rollers with the rubber bands under stress. You have to hold the fork side, and the holding hand will often be in the line of fire. Then, if the pouch slips out of your hand, the ball may hit your hand. <br><br>You will need at least a stirrup, but ultimately a sliding fork is the answer. Otherwise, you have to limit yourself to very weak bands.
