| I received these darts yesterday from AAA Plus Trains and Darts. These were designed by Rob Heckman and they are 21g. The set comes with 3 barrels, 6 shafts and 6 flights in a cardboard box. For almost 200 dollars, I think they could do better than cardboard. They appear well made and have what I would consider to be an aggressive grip. Enjoy.

| Very nice looking arrows - thanks for the pics.
I really wish I could justify the cost for a set of either these or the Mawlers but, even though I'm a Cosmo addict, I can't. If they were to do what Monster are doing in the UK and selling them over here at around half price then I would get some - but until the lottery win comes up (or a big bonus at work) then these will have to remain in my dream wishlist. |

| They are definitely nice darts. I just hope this system doesn't turn out to be another Beta-Max. |

| whoa there Knife man, nice darts and knife. 200.00 hmmm thats a lot to pay but if they work for ya then worth it. Looks like tapered nose(which I like) with shark or razor grip about 3/5 up the barrel then it looks like a bit of rings could be a softer less aggressive shark grip though. Anyway they look good. |

| I forgot to mention the Dragons have spinning shafts and the Mawlers are fixed.
The nose is tapered and the grip is the same even though the back rings look smaller. |
