I recently bought a Cold Steel Pro Magnum Blowgun 5 Ft. I have been shooting it and loving every minute of it and wanted to do a breif write up about it especially since some of the questions/pictures i was looking for were hard to find if i could find them at all.
First off i want to show you some quality pictures detailing the different darts Cold Steel offers.
I also did some velocity tests over my chrony F-1 with the muzzle of the blwgun approx 1 Ft from the chrono

The most surprising thing with these results was that the Razor Tip Darts shot the fastest, despite being one of the heaviest. I believe this was due to the darts cone which was not as tight in the barrel as the other darts i tested which may have led to less friction in the barrel and a faster velocity.
This blowgun is simply amazing its fun accurate and if you wanted to it would be deadly on small game.
