hmmm there may be enough to get that out buddy. I will wait for others to help ya but I'm willing to try as I have a repointer and if I can get just a little hold on it out she will come. So lets wait to hear what others say first okay.

There is another way. You can try heating the barrel up and the point should fall out.

Use this as a last resort though because I dont know what will happen to the gold colouring on your dart.

You could also try a claw hammer. Hold the barrel in a vice, using a bit of timber on each side of the dart so the vice doesnt leave marks on your dart. Then use the claw hammer as if you are pulling a nail out of a bit of wood.

Be careful using the hammer method that you dont use too much sideways force as you dont want to make the hole oval shaped.

Plenty there to get hold of, just send it to be re pointed (plenty of places online that do it)

I had a dart with gripper points snap in the exact same place. In the end, I pulled it out myself using a pair of plyers. It was pretty hard word mind!!
