    Long time shooter here. Started off as a kid in the 80's/90's with a .40 caliber setup from my local army navy supply shop.
    Still have 4 blowguns, 2 pro big bores by Cold Steel, the regular big bore from Cold Steel, which is being modified into a frog/fish/etc. rig, and my 36" .40 caliber.
    Gotta say, I've shot a lot of things in my life. .50 caliber barrett, 30-06, .308, every .22 variant, .40's, 10mm's, .45, .454, .300, unusual amounts of shotguns, but blowguns and archery are my absolute favorite. Quiet and powerful enough to drop black bears and pretty much anything smaller. Cost effective, very accurate, easy to get a feel-for weapons are going to serve you better in an emergency situation than fancy tech and new toys. Simple and familiar will get you further.
    Thanks for the video. That's a wicked dart. I make something similar with a bamboo dart and two #11 x-acto razor blades.

    The blow gun is incredibly powerful and accurate. A tip for the cones is to use ear specula 4mm for big bore .625. You can even trim them down for 50 cal. Incredible speeds 🙌.

    All my blowguns are homemade, ranging from .6 to .625 , 5-6ft long. I really enjoy the pvc blowguns as mouth pieces are easily attached, very slick material, and no need to worry about rust. They do need to be braced for 5ft and longer(an aluminum L angle from home depot works great) The dart you showed looks amazing for rabbits and such. I enjoy making cone darts from projection paper or wooden skewers with backer rod/ductape. 5ft 1/2 inch Electrical conduit plus a replacement big bore mouthpiece is a nice .625 option as well.

    I have had Cold Steel blowguns for many years, and tried all the regular darts offered by them, first time seeing this dart! Checked the webpage, steep price for a single dart, but considering the high quality materials, and careful machining, and the care of a craftstman, they are like custom loaded shells for any firearm. Worth it!

    I hunt invasive curly tail lizards in my backyard in South Florida. They are starting to get wise and running when they see the blowgun come out. It's amazing how quick they learn they are being hunted. I usually use a pellet gun to hunt iguanas but may try one of these big bore darts to take them out. It's a lot of fun in the summer waiting for Archery Deer Season.

    I have the big bore. I’ve Jerry rigged a fishing reel and an eyelet at the tip. Fishing for gar and snakeheads in my area is a blast. I’m thinking about getting after some carp soon too. Give it a try.

    I love blowguns because they are affordable on the budget, easy to use, and a silent weapon for small game hunting. Plus, they're fun to shoot in the backyard or in the field, but it is important to shoot responsibly as it is still a deadly weapon.

    Hello. A friend of mine got me into blowguns and I got into them around the time I was getting into slingshot hunting (prefer the latter, but the former has its benefits I believe). I’ve taken far more small game successfully with the slingshot.
    On my property I’ve taken multiple starlings and house sparrows which are legal invasive species of birds to hunt in my state year round. I believe I killed a snowshoe hare once, but unfortunately I did not recover it as it was in really thick foliage and I couldn’t find it.
    On another occasion I made a really long shot on a rock chuck (groundhog). I just remember he was far enough away that I held the blowgun up higher and watched as the dart arched downward and hit him in what I supposed were his vitals, but he went down his hole amongst the boulders and I didn’t recover him; the dart did go deep into him.

    My wife is very accurate with her 40 cal blowgun. Did a quadruple robin hood on a target at ten yards. Weve been looking at the slockmaster for a light game hunting tool for survival.
    Im liking the slim reaper dart potentially for that. After watching your video review im definitely going to get some of them and a big bore blowgun. Thanks!

    one time as a 12 year old i was using a regular fountain drink straw and little berries and at the top of a 60 or 70 foot tree canopy i decided to stand directly under a robin bird and easily hit it one shot . it was dead when it hit the ground at my feet.i didnt feel proud of my self as at the time i knew i was a good shot and could hit it but wasnt expecting it to die. never did it again and as for the now i might just have to have a few of those darts and a blow gun around for shtf.

    @williammoncrief2780 ปีที่แล้ว

    I have five .625 blowguns form 4ft to 6ft. Three by coldsteal, one Tim Wells pit viper and a custom six ft carbon fiber blowgun. I target shoot daily with many different types of darts. I like to build lung strength with heavy darts, but for the best penetration try putting some KY personal lubricant on the dart heat and shaft. Penetration in to a fore inch foam target with a 12 inch dart goes from 4.5in w/o lube to 9.75in w/ lube. I have found blowgun length gives more to range and accuracy than penetration. Hopefully this helps, have fun.

    That's pretty cool and in the right hands would be effective on small game. I've got a big bore Cold Steel which was a lot of fun till I bent it over my neighbors Rottweiler for menacing and growling at my Xs little boys. My friend had one years ago we'd shoot in his basement which made a believer out of me. It would drive the wire darts so deep in the concrete blocks we'd have to use pliers to get them out.
    I'm not accurate enough with a blowgun to reliably hunt with it but they are still fun to shoot.
    I'm more of a slingshot kinda guy really. People definitely underestimate slingshots but with the right bands and ammo they are good for hunting and selfdefence.
    I like that you can carry something so powerful in your back pocket and use all kinds of things for ammo even arrows.
    Great video!😊

    I prefer 12mm blowgun, I use wire to make darts, same diameter as the wire for spoke, but it will be soft iron wire, I just hammer the wire flat, then make them to a nice triangle shape, I used it to clean out federal cat around my home, it penetrates well.

  • @QuacGiaNgoVietCongHoa
    @QuacGiaNgoVietCongHoa ปีที่แล้ว

    I mean theoritically the maximum energy of a blow gun depends on volume of your sign, for example if you use a .625 big bore for 160cm long, it will be equal to a 12mm blow gun in 240cm metres long. However the maximum speed is also depends on its calibre and your air pressure, the 12mm blowgun will be 1.7 times faster than a 16mm blowgun on its maximum speed theoritically.
