I purchased the Diablo slingshot together with .38 ammunition and a spare elastic. My product was shipped immediately and arrived quickly. So far i have not needed to replace the stock band though i burned through the ammo quickly. The Diablo is fun to shoot and quite accurate once you get used to slingshots. I would recommend the Diablo and i would buy from "Survivalist USA" again.

It works great. It is cheap and fun. I was able to hit cans (targets) within a minute of being out of the box at a good distance. Build solid and was a good purchase.

The crossbow seemed nice for the first two shots I took with it, however on the third shot the leather pouch broke making the device pretty useless.

the pouch broke after about 250 shots, which is a little dissapointing because i was going to reinforce it later.

I purchased the Barnett Diablo Slingshot,The first thing i notice is the color was different then pictured,In picture and on package it looks neon green(lemon lime)when arrived it grass green.This is not good if someone puts it down in the grass,It may get lost or mowed over.I call company about this they replyed that the way it looks when the picture was taken ,Well i think not.The band on this it a bit longer which is ok if you have longer arms and it has a larger leather section that hold pellet which is nice.This Slingshot is made good and aim is good.Time will tell how long band will last.

Thsi slingshot will propell a object a gooly distance with accuracy. I use it in ceilings to carry twine thus the need to lift many tiles. Finding the string is anther issue for it goes farther than expected. Good control with wrist brace.

this thing is tooo much fun, very easy to get accurate with, cant wait till rabbit season . . .

The Barnett Diablo was a gift for my wife.....she wants to plink squirrels with acorns to keep them out of her garden! Well, it's still winter so she hasn't been able to give it the real test, but it seems to be well-built and durable. She likes the design, it's lightweight, and it will DEFINITELY be getting some use around July (squirrels, watch your backs!!).

Got this to ward of varmits but my life was in danger after less then 75 shots when the tubing and the leather pouch broke.
Thank God I was quick on my feet when I had to make it back to my casa with furry critters on my tail.
Not a good product.

Our crossbow slingshot broke after minimal use, just a day after I gave it as a gift. We got a replacement, so we'll see if the issue was specific to the individual product or to this product overall (all Barnett Crossbows 17066 Diablo Slingshots). I was really annoyed that I had to pay the return shipping for the product in order to get it taken care of.
