If I read the webpage correctly, they're threaded like a normal arrow head would be.

That's scary.
When I used to be able to do regular archery, I was semi-frequently re-tightening the field points on my carbon arrows. Field points shouldn't have any leverage to be able to unscrew, but some of them were starting to anyway.
These things would be far more liable to unscrew without the user realizing it than my field points were. Add in the fact that you're shooting these things at people and full-contact boffer fighting is nearly always in the heat of the moment, and you have a serious problem.

Duel colors wouldn't matter for us because we would still have to put a cloth cover on it.
Just sayin'...

Also, modular arrows are awesome and now legal, true, but do not think that we will change ANY rules for your products. They need to conform to US no matter how good you think they work. We require cloth covers, it does not matter in any way how cool you make your's, they still need a cover.

Fork, I have no idea why they would think that. The rule change still has secured at the end of the shaft in it. Still making modulars illegal.

The fact is a modular head that is on right is safe, Argueing over a rules wording when the game is about safety is stupid and rules lawyering.

Sir Par wrote:I don't think its the word secured that is tying people up. Its the "To the end of the shaft" that most people object to. The metal blunt must be secure to the end of the shaft, not secured to the thing that is secured to the end of the shaft. I'm not arguing that they're unsafe, just that the current rules won't allow them to be legal. I personally don't like the idea of an arrowhead that can be removed, but made correctly I suppose they could be safe. But unfortunately we have to follow the rules as written.
