Does anyone here knows how heavy the copperhead bbs are in grams? Because like im still choosing a method that has materials I can buy from a local retailer, I hate to pay shipping.

No, it's true. It's not a solid wood door, it's like 2 "sheets" of wood. But yeah, it's stupid to argue this over an online forum so I will just shut up now.

Yeah he's not lying, i have the type of door for my bathroom. Its so fricken weak.

Define "Best".

I use #8 steel washers because
1. They're cheap ($0.007 each when purchased at $4.59 for a 1lb box)
2. They're non-toxic (unlike lead)
3. They offer more surface area for glue
4. Being flat you distribute much more of the weight of the dart at the very tip.
5. I can cover them with felt discs, which are also cheap but also offer a uniform aerodynamic profile.
6. They weigh the right amount (0.8 grams) for the performance I want.

Ooo its sounds very interesting. Well I think im going to try these. Hey Cs do you know where i can find them in large amounts for cheap? Like i need atleast 2000

I just use 4.5 mm copper bb's. I take the screwdriver that I use to crack open guns to poke a 1/2 long hole in the foam, and then just shove the bb's in. (2). By the way, here's a tip. NEVER just burn the foam with the tip of your hot glue gun to make the hole. It messes up you hot glue gun, and it puts off very toxic fumes. Plus, the bb's are never straight, so your flight is affected.

Oh, know wonder my glue gun stopped working. The whole entire tipp was like like all sticked with the foam residue :angry: .
