Illegal Possession of a Slingshot

In Nome, Alaska, "No person shall have in his or her physical possession, nor shall discharge, an airgun, bow and arrow, or slingshot within the city," according to Ordinance O-93-6-6.

There are exceptions. This does not apply to "possession or discharging in authorized locations," and authorized locations means "occupied residences, operational vehicles, premises in which such devices are sold or displayed, and facilities designed for indoor charges." So you cannot walk down the street with a slingshot, but you can shoot a bow and arrow or bb gun in your house.

There is also an exception when you are "transporting along a direct course between authorized locations, provided the device is not loaded while en route." So be sure that your bow and arrow is not loaded if you are carrying it in your car to an authorized location!
