Airgun darts.
I made a few airgun darts, they are really accurate, are fairly easy to make and penetrate really far. (All the way in a hard wood plankwith a diana mod 50 with a broken seal).

Great looking darts, I bet they can do some serious damage. What do you fire them out of?
It's all a bunch of tree huggin' hippie crap!

it looks like decapitated air gun pellets on a pin with wire wrapped around?

You'll get damage pics from me soon, but I can explain how the thing works.dauphinoise potato wrote:Great looking darts, I bet they can do some serious damage. What do you fire them out of?
The 2 beheaded airgun pellets serve to keep the thing straight in the barrel, so it will come out of the barrel just as straight.
The copper wire decreases the chance of the thing breaking in half on fire, and it keeps the pellet together on impact..
And it works.
On hard targets, the steel core will keep on going into the target because it is still being pressed on by the back pellet.
The front pellet will get stuck in the target and let the steel core go so it can slide freely into the target, during this time the forces apperently gets to high that the steel core bends and breaks at multiple places, this is where the copper wire keeps it together so those parts can still transfer their momentum.
