Need Arrows or arrow kits!

Anyone selling arrows or kits? Mine have fallen into disrepair after a long hiatus and edhellen doesn't seem to be selling kits anymore. Help!

I could also use a good quiver.

As for kits/arrows, can't help ya there...

But as for a quiver, I just use a drill holster from Home Depot/LOWES. They hold up well over time and I can fit enough arrows in it to keep myself busy for quite some time. :)

me and a friend in my realm just made our own, just follow edhellens construction guide with blue camp foam and the open cell green foam from jo-anns fabric, except use two layers of the green foam, then put it all together with a hot glue gun

Don't use the green Jo-Anne's open cell foam. It breaks down way too quickly and makes your arrows hit like bricks. Go to your local computer store and ask if they have any packing foam that they are planning on throwing out and if you could possibly have it and if not that then if you can buy it. Or you could go dumpster diving behind their store, either one works.

I just bought a dozen arrows from Fitz, and I can definitely say, they are awesome. They fly straight, and he uses a higher quality foam for both the open & closed cell, which makes the tips last forever. Highly recommended.

Oh so now your grateful for the arrows, geez! I make all those arrows for ya and ask if I could borrow just a few to help fill out my quiver for the game but NOoooooo.......

Jeeze, I was having to run all over searching for more ammo just minutes into the game.....

Fitz, do you sell arrows? I hear yours are some of the best! If you do sell them, for how much?

I'm in the process of building one right now. For the mean time feel free to PM me if you have questions or would like to order some.

And as a side note, those interested in 30inch round plank foam shields I'll be selling them at a nice discounted rate shortly. Stay tuned!
