Item from Bully by Rockstar Vancouver
Jimmy Hopkins's signature weapon — a simple Y-shaped slingshot that's the great equalizer in a school where every clique has its own brand of violence.
The Slingshot is Jimmy's answer to a school full of boxers, wrestlers, and bike-chain-wielding Greasers. It's ranged, it's concealable, and it hurts enough to change someone's mind about a confrontation without causing permanent damage. In a game that's essentially about a teenager navigating a war zone, the slingshot is the weapon that keeps everything at the right scale — dangerous but not deadly, scrappy but effective. It's also deeply symbolic: it's David's weapon, and Jimmy is always David against someone else's Goliath.
A sturdy wooden slingshot with a thick rubber band, small enough to fit in a back pocket. Unimpressive to look at — it's a kid's toy in the hands of a kid who's anything but. Well-worn from constant use, with notches carved into the handle that might be a kill count or might just be boredom.
