I'm always keeping my eyes open for genuine SharpShooters and darts. But typically you find bozos like this who throw a couple Mega Darts on a SharpShooter and want $90 bucks, or this yoyo who listed a yellow Nite Finder as a "rare" vintage SharpShooter. Oy 🙄

Obviously prices fluctuate and eBay sellers get crazy with asking prices, but here's an example of a current listing for the real McCoy at $150 plus shipping. In my experience, this is on the low side for a SharpShooter in this condition. Still too rich for my blood considering it's just a display piece for all intents and purposes. But I did add it to my watchlist 😛 You seem to know a lot about Sharpshooter darts and I have a question for you...

The darts that came with my Sharpshooter have red suction cups, but no fins. Based on the wiki, this was a later model. That makes sense as a bought it with the Arrowstorm and that came out a year later apparently. However, these are still not standard mega darts because those do not work with the Sharpshooter. The opening on the red tipped darts is much larger.

So, my question is, what are the darts that I have called AND do they work with any other vintage blasters???

Side note: It disturbs me when people call stuff from the 90s/early 2000s "vintage" or "antique" like the guy with the mislabeled Sharpshooter listing.
