    Back when I was a dart flinger, we glued them on, ya see. :-) What is the diameter and pitch of the threads? Is this the same pitch and diameter as the field points? Thanks.

    inserts that come with arrows are a standard thread.
    you can buy glue on adapters, to add weight.
    I have the magnus stinger 2 blades in 126 gr screw in for my trad setups

    I need to know the pitch (threads per inch) and the diameter of the thread as well. Can anyone please give me that information? Thanks.

    Traditional (longbow or recurve). Not sure on the pitch but yes, its the same as field points.

    8-32? That's awful tiny, for a 5/16" shaft, it would seem. I thought it would be 1/4-24 or something similar. Well, thanks, that's what I needed to know.
