Years ago I bought a cheap blow gun from "The Sportsman's Guide". Thin wire darts with a plastic cone fletch. Could shoot the center of a soup can (fairly heavy gauge) from about 40 feet. Shot through BOTH sides of the can and buried the wire into my apartment floor though heavy wall to wall carpet. My friends and I had a blast with it while swillin' beers. too long to shoot yourself by accident, so we had a ball with it. amazingly accurate. Without beer, I could hit inside a quarter's diameter most of the time! Amazing! Truly easy to "sight it in".

do you use normal paper or card stock at the end of the dart (not the nail).
