This is just a dart i threw together in like 5 minutes. Its has a nail at the head, a 3/4'' socket for weight and to create a seal plus, duct tape fins, all on a steal rod that is too stiff for me to bend over my knee. It easily drove through a peice of 1/4'' plywood at 30psi. They i fired it at a hard plastic ramp (like the ones from toys r us) at 35psi and it totally ruined the dart but it went all the way through the ramp, socket and all.

this should go in the ammo...


But it is a cool contraption. Bet it'll do some damage.
