Like a lot of comments on here, I had one of these as a teenager in the 80's and used to love firing it in the woods near where I lived. Barnett's daughter was about my age and I used to see her every now and again as she lived locally (she was pretty and only ever wore Benetton clothes). Her Dad made a motsa providing bows and knives for the Rambo films and so she was out of my league (and she knew it too).

I as a kid and up to my late teens shot the tubes off these for years there were times we would buy the frames just for the tubes and put them on are own forks simply bcos it was all we could get but if u were lucky youd find a shop with some barnett tubes only and for some reason they were excellent for our frames they were much more springy easier draw not that plastic kinda feel youd get from the tubes on the full item on the frame etc theraband gold we got from America were we first seen a catty comp and from there met the uk lads we did get tappered barnett tubes where the fork end was a thicker size and they tapered thinner towards the pouch they were good as they were very fast and a lighter draw but the only other flats were old car tubes But ye the blackwidow was the gateway for many shooters they've got there place in the catty scene.(U done pretty good there using different ammos)👍

Great video... I had one back in about 1980ish... I just bought the same one as you and found the arm brace to painful to use... as soon as i took it off with a stardrive I love it again, I also think it looks narrower but maybe we're just bigger now lol... All the best: -)

These catapults are pathetic, I have one of these.. it shoots a stone around 40 - 45 metres and a 9mm ammo 55 metres. I shot a seagull with 9mm steel ball ammo, and it barely even hurt the seagull it just looked at me, these things are nothing but children's toys.😂

That's a nice, warm, and neutral color. It also looks like it takes a sanding very well as the finish is smooth and consistent. I haven't seen that material worked into something, so i think it looks good. Thanks for sharing 👍.

I find the thicker the band the better it grips.and a bit of hangover on a smaller forktip does not effect it in any way,even with clipped frames 👍 keep truckin bud u know your frames are seriously sturdy u cant point a finger at a builder for ware and tare✌️

Unfortunately people forget who innovated high end clipped catapults and often overlook the amount of knowledge and craftmanship required to develop such a thing. As a owner of a few clipped RCC frames over the years i can say nothing but good things about your clips and how well they hold. Keep up the good work Asa and anyone who doubts the design dont know the design

The King Rats one of their premium versions, the Bog standard one is still sold with either the regular natural or the same Red Magnum band thats on the King Rat version (grips still the same design as the late 90s early 00s and still uses the plastic brace) and then you have the Hunter line which I think is just the Widow and Havoc still that come in Camo with the tapered X bands. Those that use the brace I recommend making a padded replacement for comfort, one of my original Widows I made one out of leather and 2 I customised recently got Pleather ones and its so much more comfortable to use, that said I've been alright so far with the King Rat foam on my Cobra but I do have larger arms so that could be a contributing factor.

I have the black widow that came with grey bands and they were nice. But I put the tapered double x bands on it now, and with my home made nail dart ammo, I think I could eat in the forest. Just take nails with small heads and use tiny rubber bands to attach a bundle of strings around the head of the nail like a tail so it straightens itself when shooting held sideways in pouch by center of nail. Sharpen the nail with oil stones

Hello My friend, Thank you for your video. May I ask please, do you have to buy those pieces of elastic separately that attach the elastics to your fork? Not long ago, they supplied the seperate pieces of elastic to secure your elastics to the forks and pouch. It wouldn't surprise me now if we have to buy those seperately. Something else gone Pete Tonge!
