The '''slingshot''' is a simple [[weapon]], consisting of a Y-shaped stick or piece of plastic with an elastic cord holding a plastic cup stretched between the prongs. It is used by putting a stone or ball in the cup, stretching it past the cheek with the dominant hand, then letting go to fire the stone.
It is a popular toy with children, due to ots simple construction and use of rocks or pebbles as [[ammunition]].
The slingshot is not to be confused with the [[sling (weapon)|sling]], the weapon used by [[David]] to kill [[Goliath]].
