Slingshot Darts what could go Wrong | Testing the Dragon Scale Glove 

I'm seriously impressed. Whoever made these needs to start a full clothing range 😂

I actually thought your first 3 shots were just deflecting off the scales, tight group dude, very tight group. Nice demonstration.

Nothing to sort out. Your videos are great. Congrats to the winners. I ordered the glove a few days ago after watching your other videos. And now I know it was a wise decision. (I had a black widow back in the day.) I have a few different types of bows aswell. Slingshots and bows- completely different skill sets. And if the zombies ever do attack, I'll be grabbing my slingshots first.

Those wire frames are really good for dart shooting. Big shooting gap and hammer grip makes it much safer. I installed my flat bands using smart clamps. I did turn the handle other way around, so the prongs are now facing towards the target. This is safer way to use those clamps. That glove is well worth the price. I was little bit skeptical about its stopping capabilities, because those scales looked very thin, but this video proves me wrong.

I prefer the older style darts cause the fletchings are way more durable. the bigger thumb grip is nice but the hard plastic will crack the first time you miss. that being said, I put feather fletchings on there using epoxy and they work amazingly. also discovered the fishing dart tips will thread right on there. just my 2 cents ✌️

Great video! Thank you for field testing that glove, and also for showing us what could go wrong without one. Appreciate it!!!

The clips of the damage makes me sick to my stomach, makes me understand just how dangerous these can be. Its insane how damaging they can be for the shooter if you don't take the correct precautions.

it was you and your channel that got me back into catty,s mate keep on doin what you do

Looked like good protection for a glove so thin! If I was shooting darts I'd much rather have one than not based on this video! Merry Christmas to you and your family!

Brilliant video Chris. No Bullshit , no waffling on , down to earth guy , that's why you get a million viewers. Happy Christmas to you and your family mate.

Hey no way. Thats awesome. Thanks Chris and Snipersling for the opertunity. Your video and audio quality sounds and looks great. Let me know if you need some information from me Chris. Thanks again brother

Good to see you again Chris. The glove would deflect the dart depending on the angle, whereas the dart would pierce the skin for sure. Great vid. All the best to you and your loved ones. Be well, stay free 👍🏻

Wow! I really didn't think it would do so well. Very impressive. I might get me some of these. This test is great.

Thanks for doing this test. I've done some testing myself on the Snipersling Kevlar glove and the more usual leather and metal plate type gloves. The Kevlar glove stopped the dart but it did allow about 6mm of penetration, so if that was on a knuckle or joint it would hurt. The leather and metal plate glove stopped the dart dead, no penetration and minimal deformation. That said, leather offers no protection at all - the glove worked because the dart hit the metal plate. So it was a choice between the full coverage but slightly lesser protection of the kevlar glove and the lesser coverage but better protection of the leather and metal plate glove. I went with the leather and metal plate option because my frame allows me to hold so that my hand is completely protected behind the metal plate. This dragonscale glove looks like the best of both worlds. I think you're overstating the broken bones possibility - I've chono'd the darts at about 6.5 fltbs with supplied Snipersling black bands, I don't think that's enough to break any bones. I also shoot heavy lead balls at 24ftlbs and I hit the back of my hand with one of them, I was wearing the same leather and metal plate glove and it hurt like hell but did no serious or lasting damage.

People have no idea how close we are to that post-apocolyptic world. I've got absolutely nothing against anyone, but I'd rather be segregated from society than fall in line like the rest of those who don't value their freedoms. The glove is spot on, far better to have it than not. Them darts are savage little things but I think I'd still rather have ball bearings purely due to ease of carrying and amount I could carry in a comfortable manner. Great video.

Totally agree with the pros and cons in slingshot vs bow or crossbow being situational. And those gloves are awesome!

Have you tried the kevlar gloves at Snipersling? I wonder if they would stop the dart? Could not get a response from them. Just curious. Nice informative video.

Congratulations to the four winners 🎯👍

This shows how good that glove is. The shot that hit it was definitely more perpendicular than if you were wearing the glove to shoot darts, so the glove would easily deflect a shot at a shallower angle. Nice grouping though!

CHRIS YUR THE MAN A SKILLED HUMBLE EXLERT THANK FOR ALL YOU'RE knwlage pj

Hey Chris, definitely worth the money opposed to having what you showed a dot through your hand. I don’t know how much more you can present it to make it show that it is worth beautiful example.

Appreciate you testing the glove. Think I’ll pick one up for the boy. Keep him reasonably safe. ✌🏻

The accuracy in those shots were crazy...

Good job wish I had a glove 20 years ago I put a homemade dart into my hand that I made out of a large shark hook I had Straightened out it hit me in the web of my hand I could not pull it out I had to push it all the way through and cut the barb off and then pull it out good video

Chris I love the slingshot aswell dude but some-people don’t realise how powerful and diverse the slingshot/flat bands are. And just want to argue and talk shit about it ,,

Thanks for all your videos Chris! Much love from Illinois, USA!

Wow. This glove is a must have and is really impressive. Absolute must have.

you should do more hunt videos, maybe even a fishing video. might work

Im surprised this doesn't have around twice the views it does, pretty interesting

Honestly these would be pretty effective with a Joerg sprave style slingshot "rifle".

I think some protection is certainly better than none at all… good test to say what’s been fired at it 👍👍👍

Neat those darts are neat but that’s a dangerous weapon so definitely needs the slow approach.

Awesome video Chris. Love these darts. Not sure I've got the bottle to shoot them but going to buy some... Maybe

Thanks for these videos, earned a sub. Have you thought about setting up a bit of a moving target system? maybe the targets could be on swing arms that pivot around in front of a full backstop to catch misses?

good trial of the glove but you was shooting at a distance. wouldn't the dart have lost a bit of momentum vs being less than a half meter away?

Great video Chris as per usual 👌 point well proved.. I said from the start that glove is a must.. unless you're a very well experienced shooter.. I like the modified wrist brace frame.. perfect for the darts.. All the best mate 👌

after you uploaded the 1st video with the gloves/darts i went & ordered from snipersling, theyre beauties, cheers for the links bud

Good seeing you bub! Congrats on your subscribers my friend!!

When I shoot the darts I use my own made with longer forks because i have seen a friend with a dart in his hand but I'm more accurate with the smaller sling shot it's just easier and I wouldn't risk it

I agree it’s a amazing system. They hit hard. Quite accurate also. Good for small even possibly medium game with a well placed shot..

This was to cover the boxing glove Aluminum or something like that 😂 13 secrets ways let you open locks 😂

Good stuff Chris very informative 👏

Great vid! I don't get nay sayers, slingshot is no toy!! But if you know how to handle it responsible....lotsa fun.

Thats some purple EPIC quality gloves right there.

Great video Chris, need to get you a lapel mic though...... couldn’t hear a word you were saying on the 2nd half of it. Love those Sniper Sling frames though..... wish they would do a Toxic Green/black option and I’d probably pay the USA postage to get a couple

I would have gotten it just because it looks cool, let alone the protection it offers, definitely impressed

Thanks for posting this brother! I was wondering how those gloves would hold up. Now you’re gonna make me have to go get a set! Thanks brother! Like I need another toy! Merry Christmas to you and yours!👊🙏😂 Great logic at the end! Thanks!

Thanks for shooting your glove to educate others, cheers.

The mics are a great addition. Sound is definitely better. Great video also

I'd definitely use this glove rather than not lol...thank you for making this video brother.

Options are good! The options in your playlist are good too👍

Really helpful, Merry Christmas Chris!

Really great video so informative and extremely helpful, really love the channel.😊

Great info Chris and good grouping. Thanks

I am 80 years old and I have tried a lot of things from western fast draw and too many things too mention. I am starting shooting slingshots and have invested a bit of money. I am watching your videos and I am learning a lot. I am now getting into shooting darts. I don’t know enough about this to know what kind of glove to use for protection and I would really appreciate your professional knowledge for advise. I am very dedicated to this and I am learning more everyday. I thank you for the information about this sport and will continue watching. Please advise me where to find these gloves. I will keep watching and god bless. smoke wildhorse is my name. Native American name. Thanks

Mics are great, clear crisp sound enhance the top quality video.

It’s a no brainer for me.....mine works outstanding, and I’ve been lucky enough so far, not one penetration incident, which increased my confidence level significantly 😎👍great glove. As a matter of fact, I’ve adopted this glove over to wearing it while I shoot my Asiatic style archery, in which the area along the back of the thumb is used as an arrow rest.....outstanding double purpose piece of safety gear brotha 😎🙏🏹👍

I want this sewn into the lining of my suits, John Wick style😂

Top video I was wondering if the glove would work and this video has proven it, you could also add some extra leather underneath to add extra safety.

Can't wait to see that mesquite frame, I'm from south Texas and we have lots of them. I have made catties out them and they do not disappoint

fun fact: scale armor was the first ever used metal armor (since bronze age) :). and even into medieval times used.

Great communicator 👍

Thanks for the guidance to protect hands

that clip was hard to watch lmao. Ordered a glove yesterday because I'm always overly cautious with everything I do, but it turns out I was right to be. Accidents do happen, you just don't know when

I did the exact same thing with my sling dart , I can’t use my thumb now , I want one of those gloves

Можете поделиться ссылкой где купить такую перчатку с чешуей.спасибо за ответ!

I can't find it now, but i saw a beefier version with i think 15 gauge steel scales, the larger "dragon scale" type and it had heavier veg tanned leather underneath, looked good for both these and for regular archery.

Brilliant video sound quality definitely a lot better to mate and would love to see more ratting videos and squirrel hunting also have a good Christmas 😀

Some guys just like to hear themselves , at that distance and picking up speed it did very well

The wrist rocket with flat bands and darts is imo the smallest lethal stealth hunting/combat weapon. The Chinese gangsters freakin fought with these things, scary. My favorite tool is my pistol crossbow tho.

They are not cheap and are made for little fingers but I do wear mine Love these darts I have put tiny o rings on mine stops them unscrewing

Tremendous amount of information. 👌👍👌

A fair test glove is cool

Good job that's an awesome looking glove & awesome protection ! Merry Christmas 🎄 🎅 everyone

Very nice, thanks for sharing bro

Great video!I'd like a whole suit made from it! Very accident prone!😂

Ahoj zdravím tě. Super video děkuji.👍👏👏👏

How much should be the inner width from the slingshot for darts

Great video mate really enjoy it 👍

would like to see a dart in ballistic gel or something similar to see how they penetrate

I had no idea that slingshots could hit your hand. I have had the rubber bounce back and slap my thumb before. But damn. Aim better.

It’s an awesome slingshot

Iv just watched your vid & don't know if any1 has suggested fabracating in a D loop so you can use a release aid such as they use with compound bows. I think having a release aid would give more stability & accuracy. Frickin awesome vid. Really like the glove. I do a bit of archery (compound) but since seeing butterfly slingshot shooting, i want to get myself a good slingshot.

Those first three shots i dont think where high. I think those where blows to it that glanced off of it.

I love snake scale armor

Think experience is the key…being a novice at slingshot…lol,I wouldn’t attempt them,but accidents..can..and do happen..but they are cool for hunting 👍

I want a whole t-shirt made out of that material

Great video i was wandering how much protection that glove would give, enough without being hindering your movement way better than that clip! I sapos just take a second with your shot. Your audio is great never really noticed much shuffling until you did it near the end.

the fact it dont penetrated and it the same time has even more force in impact.... (yep) the dart that would hit your hand way after release has less force. it gains force after passing the hand

Excellent video sound is great merry Christmas 🎄 to you and your family

Well seeing as you've already put the idea out there: a video where you hunt rabbits with them darts? 👀

Excelente video gracias

Cómo modificaste el black wido para dardos video porfavor

Seems if you were to shoot dulled points as opposed to sharp ones such as you’re using the glove would work even better.

This is way faster than it would be if you shot your hand this is beyond worse case

how accurate and powerful ---are these slingshot arrows---? --can I kill a pheasant or pigeon size bird ---@ 30 yds ----or will it only wound the poor thing??

Bloody great video Chris i am well chuffed that you decided to do this test on that glove as gorgeous as it maybe the proof is in the pudding as they say them darts give me the fear but that glove has done its job ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

One thing I've noticed between you and some other slingshot shooters,, it appears to me that you are "anchoring" your hand at your cheek area,, much like an archer would. I also noticed you're using the black bands. From what I understand, the black bands are the strongest of the different colored bands. Do you know the formula for determining the lbs pull you have, at your draw length, for the length of band you are using? And am I correct in assuming you can increase the lbs pull by using shorter bands?

Why didn’t he unscrew the head and take the barb off? Where do you get the glove?

Suppose I may get to the shop and get more peppers for the dinner 🤦‍♀️
