This one is rather pointless but I'm really focusing on reusable "SHTF" type weapons like slingshots, bows, spears... etc. I figure it might be good to have some stuff like that to fall back on if need be.

I've been going back to basics and started making some crude weapons just for fun. Here is one of them. It consists of a 1" iron coupling with plugs threaded and welded into each end. One plug has a hole drilled through it, the other is ground to a rough 45 degree point. I tied a couple 4' lengths of thin rope to the plug with the hole in it and threw it like a football. At 25 to 30 feet out, the thing drag-stabilized pretty well and had no problem busting through an old pallet I had sitting around. I'll be trying it on sheet metal or a car door soon.

Since you've already tied a string to it...
Shouting "ALLAH HU AKBAR!!!" at the point of release will make it fly farther

Consider in a SHTF scenario you may not be able to retrieve a thrown weapon
