Barnett Outdoors recalls Black Widow slingshots due to wrist strap slipping off the wrist brace, potentially causing injury. Consumers must stop using and get a free replacement wrist strap.
The slingshot's wrist strap can slip off the wrist brace when the slingshot's pouch is pulled back which can result in the body of the slingshot snapping back and striking the user.
Barnett Outdoors is recalling Black Widow slingshots because the wrist strap can slip off the wrist brace when the pouch is pulled back. This could cause the slingshot body to snap back and strike the user, leading to injury.
The wrist strap on recalled slingshots lacks an X mark where the strap slides onto the wrist brace. When the pouch is pulled back, the strap can slip off, causing the slings: the slingshot body may snap back and strike the user.
Owners of Barnett Outdoors Black Widow slingshots with the specific wrist strap design described are affected. Users who pull the pouch back frequently are at higher risk of injury.
Check for Black Widow slingshots about 6 inches tall with a black plastic handgrip, red rubber studs, silver metal fork, and silver folding wrist brace. The wrist strap should not have an X mark where it slides onto the wrist brace.
