👉 A mail weapon, also known as a slingshot or javelina thrower in some contexts, is a type of ranged weapon that uses a long, flexible string to launch projectiles with considerable force. Typically made from animal sinew or leather, the slingshot consists of two vertical poles with a looped string at the end, which is held by the user. When released, the string propels a small stone or metal projectile, such as an arrow or dart, at high speed towards its target. This weapon is simple yet effective, allowing for rapid and accurate strikes over distances, and has been used by various cultures throughout history.
