Professional .625 Magnum® Big Bore® Blowgun, 4 Foot
The blowgun or blowpipe has a long history that spans the globe. Many experts believe it was first invented in Malaysia and migrated through the Malaysian and Indonesian archipelagos to the Philippines and even Japan. The blowgun, however, was not justa south-eastern weapon; it also surfaced in the western hemisphere in the jungles of South and Central America, moving as far north as the southeastern United States. Blowguns were originally invented to serve as a hunting weapon. They were used to bag small animals and birds, with small stones or hardened clay pellets being used for ammunition.
Cold Steel's Big Bore® Blowguns feature large caliber .625 Magnum barrels that make them capable of shooting darts that are faster and heavier than other models on the market today! They have an effective range out to 20 yards (abt. 18 m) or more and,with practice, a skilled user can hit a two-inch circle at amazing distances and deliver a heavyweight dart capable of penetrating a half-inch sheet of plywood.
While the regular .625 Magnum® blowguns are awesome, Cold Steel decided to raise the bar even higher with the Professional .625 blowgun. It comes with a target style mouthpiece and a 3 mm thick barrel, which means it is almost twice as thick and 45% heavier than the standard models, making it the heaviest commercially made blowgun in the world. But the real reason you should shell out the extra dough for it is the huge increase in accuracy afforded by its substantially more rigid barrel.
