A Brief History Of Primitive & Traditional Blowguns
Blowguns
Our blowguns are available in five calibers, either 56.25, 59.37, 62.50, 65.62, or 68.75. They may be ordered in lengths of from 5 feet up to 8 feet, depending on the model. These are currently made of bamboo, hardwood, and steel tubing. All of our models are designed to shoot both marbles and darts. If you smoke or have reduced or small lung capacity, we recommend you begin with our smallest caliber. At this time we are not able to ship products on this page to customers outside the US. As soon as the logistics and legalities have been arranged, these products will be available worldwide. Also, prospective customers in California and Massachusettes should consult your state laws prior to ordering.
Primitive Bamboo Blowguns
|
Our bamboo blowguns come in lengths from 5 to 6 feet and are available in 56, 59, 62, 65, or 68 caliber. These consist of a bored and reamed bamboo tube with a hard wood mouthpiece and metal muzzle reinforcement ring. Unless otherwise requested, wooden mouthpieces are left unstained to match the tube. Bamboo may split over time due to changes in humidity. Our products are sealed both internally and externally to reduce the likelihood of this happening. Traditional bamboo blowguns were wrapped in bark, cloth, or other materials and lacquered to prevent or repair splits. Our product may be partially wrapped in hemp cord to cover cracks in the bamboo. If ordering using the shopping cart buttons, the bore and length can be specified during the check out process. PayPal provides a note to seller box. Otherwise be sure to include your bore and length preferences on the order form. If not specified, the defaults are 56.25 caliber and a length of 6 feet.

Unless otherwise requested, wooden mouthpieces are stained to match the tube. If ordering using the shopping cart buttons, the bore, length, and finish can be specified during the check out process.

Darts
Our standard 1/4 inch diameter wooden darts come with steel points. These projectiles will stick in standard archery back stops such as straw bales, saunders mats, ethafoam, & etc.
Wood Bead Feather Fletched Darts With Steel Points
|
These are our most accurate projectiles due to the spin imparted by the three helical fletching feathers. They also have far greater range than traditional drag stabilized darts. Our wood bead feather fletched darts have a round wood bead behind the point to act as an air seal piston. These are quick and easy to load, but must be ordered in the correct caliber to fit the bore of the blowgun in which they are to be used. Wood bead feather fletched darts sell for $45.00 per dozen if ordered and shipped with another item, or $50.00 if ordered alone. This price includes postage to customers in the US.
