The Alamo is without doubt one of the most misrepresented dart shaft on the internet. You notice in the picture that the Alamo has distinct grooves on the shaft just above the thread. The Harrows Alamo Shafts come in 2 sizes – short 35mm and medium 47mm (the sizes are approximate) – in 3 colours white, red and black – we only sell the black and red at Deadeye Darts. The Alamo has a nylon shaft with an alloy top – this top is NOT replaceable.
A number of internet sites sell a shaft we call the Flite Tite as the Alamo, the big difference is this shaft has a replaceable alloy top. The Flite Tite is available in 3 sizes – extra short, short 41mm and medium 48mm – in 3 colours, black, red and blue. We stock both the short and medium length in all the colours.
We have given the Alamo a good work out and find them to be very durable and also very light. They do not warp as can happen sometimes with aluminium shafts. I’ve also noticed that if you robin hood - most of the time you can bend the alloy top back into position and continue on your way. Of course the advantage with the Flite Tite shafts is that they have replaceable tops. On the rare occasion when a shaft brakes off at the base you need to remove the remaining portion of the dart shaft from your barrel. A broken shaft remover is always a good standby. The Broken Shaft Remover is available in our dart accessories section.
These dart shafts – both the Harrows Alamo and the Flite Tite are great workhorses at very attractive prices.
