I have a question about those dankun slingshots,  

what is the collimator attachment, and how does it work.. i looked on the website and couldnt find any explanation as to what it does except that it made it more accurate ..I was curious if anyone had tried it.

I've looked at the collimator also and it looks like a series of tiny holes to sight through for aiming. This is just a guess however.

thats what i thought at first too but if you held that thing at arms length i dont think you would be able to even see through those holes..maybe Im wrong though.. I also thought maybe it like a sight they put on compound bows ..maybe you slide a pin in the sots (using the pin as a sight reference) and you can change the slot for the distance.  but that seems like a long shot too.   someone out there has to have bought one of these things and can tell us what it does (if anything)

I have their "Warrior" model, see the link to the video review in the "video" subsection of this forum.

I could not figure out the purpose of the "holes". They are too small for sights and anyway these slings are shot "flip style" and instinctive.
