Do you think it would stop something that small-short?

If you can find someone who can lend it for a try, i think it would be worth a chance. just back it up with a couple of cardboard boxes stuffed inside one another.

The large foam block archery targets would work well, but the dart would probably get lost inside of it. You could also make your own ballistics gel.

I was reading about a signature and I think that if I accumulate a few more bucks I could get one. So if anyone likes my .40 cal paintbal\dart\potato gun, donate a couple bux to help the cause. It would make me so happy :D :D :D :D :D

Edit: Thanks again MrCrowley for the donation. But I'm very sad to say that signatures cost 300 instead of 200 Bux. Thanks anyway guys but I guess I'll keep typing.

I went with double chambers for two reasons. The first is I have not seen it before like that. And the second is I wanted to build a working gun entierly out of 3\4".

I used the old dove rail that came with my Ruger 10-22 rifle. I measured how much room I had on either side of the sprinkler valve, then cut the dove rail to fit. Then I drilled very very shallow holes to screw the rail to. And used JB Weld for extra support for the scope and to strenthen the sprinkler valve where I weakened it by drilling(with the JB Weld I think it could be stronger at that point I drilled at now. ?).

Did you get enough money for your sig? I would donate, but I am saving up just for that purpose, also! Have you decided to make some ballistics gel? Gosh, that gun is amazing...
