Slingshot

Slingshots are used only in "Vorkuta" in the Call of Duty: Black Ops Campaign to launch improvised incendiary devices at guard emplacements. They function similarly to a Grenade Launcher and use the same aiming reticule. On the Wii version, it is replaced with a Crossbow. If only three shots are used to destroy the towers, a trophy/achievement will be unlocked called "Slingshot Kid."

Trivia

 * Mason could have made the weapons, as Reznov claims "his ingenuity can turn junk into weapons."
 * It also appears that the object they are using to fling at the guard towers are Molotov Cocktails. As seen by the flame and bottle you can briefly see after you let go of the slingshot. The size of the explosions, however, indicate that Mason may have added something more explosive to the mixture, such as gelignite.
 * If the player doesn't pull the slingshot back far enough to make the vibration start and then lets go, it won't fire and one of the prisoners will say "You need to pull it all the way."
 * The Slingshot may be a tribute to the movie "The Last Castle". During the movie's prison riot, Slingshots were used to launch improvised explosives at the guard towers.
