Has anyone experimented with Nerf darts as cones or stabilizers?? They're pretty cheap and I have had some success and failures so far. Anyone have any knowledge to share?
Why I never thought of that!! Fantastic idea! I've been thinking about nerf dartsThe neat thing is you can insert a bead in the hollow cavity and it stretches so you can shoot from a larger pipe.
I'm going to buy some suction cup darts!!The older suction cup style darts fit pretty well in 1/2" pvc. It makes for a fun way to kill flies around the house.
I'm going to insert a steel ball inside them! Maybe can be shot with a slingshot too!Lol. Now time to turn mad scientist and start thinking up ways to make them more deadly.
Yes, as close as the tip! Or maybe glue on some foam fins on the tail if used for slingshots!They will fly way better. Push the ball as close to the tip as possible.
I tried stuffing my HDPE cones into the foam darts on the first day I received them, totally messed up the flight, yes, they shot really hard! But broke off one of the rubber tips.I found that if you remove the cone off of the CS stun dart and stick it into the back of the nerf dart it works very well . Shoots very fast . I imagine you can still shove a steel bearing down to the nose and would be even better . Harder hitting with a more stable flight .
