Are there any air powered arrow or dart shooters? By dart I mean something more serious than the little 177 darts like you shoot from a GAT at a dart board, I'm meaning dart.
I'm thinking about maybe making a barrel that would shoot blowgun darts or maybe something that will shoot crossbow bolt sized arrows. I'd like to know what's out there and what's been done before I reinvent the wheel. Looking through the Airgun Blurebook I didn't see anything that jumped out at me, except the one that shoots arrows made out of soda straws. I though that was a great idea and lots of fun, but not quite what I want to put together. |

Just curious, what would you use this for, if ya found or built one?
Anywho...any gun that could fire darts would need a smooth bore. IMHO, the dart's flights wouldn't work and play well with the lans/grooves of a pellet type gun. Of course I could be wrong.
If you do choose to scratch build one, make it .50 cal. Those smaller darts are worthless. Way to light. I built my own 6' long blow gun a few years back using 1/2 emt conduit. Even made my own darts. (never do that again! every try holding x-acto blades on a doll rod while glue cures....took weeks for my fingers to heal!)
Good luck!

| There are air powered dart guns because they use them to subdue animals. |

| That's pretty cool right there. If and when this comes back to the top of my "to do" list that's along the lines of what I have in mind. |
