Any body know? They are gone from 3R's site, no longer on Raptor site. Can't find any.
I do not know, they are not listed on the AD website. I know that the Nitro Stingers are still made. Contact 3Rivers or Ted and I am sure they can answer your question.
Still made. Just ordered 2 doz from the mfg. Call him or email. He just ran a batch.
They are on their website.

Been there can't find the black.
There is more demand for the heavy wood grain version. Personally it's kind of frustrating people keep jumping on the heavy arrow wagon. there is a limit. The AD black is actually pretty heavy gpi. For whitetails a 575-600 grain arrow is plenty!!! I'm really not sure what kind of zombies we need heavier arrows for. That black AD shaft give great arrow weight and awesome performance. I'm not an elk hunter (only because of pocketbook) but I've blown through deer from every angle with arrows under 600 gr. I don't like the weight of the woodgrain AD. Just dogs down my whole set-up. Can't hit anything. i remember when bullet mfgs were really pushing heavier weight bullets for standard deer calibers and harder jackets, more penetration, less expansion. I thought it odd because I was already shoot through deer. Now as bullets are better, solid copper and such like barnes. They make more loads are for lighter weight bullets.
The woodgrain ones are so easily available, I'm tempted to try the woodgrain lites just to see if they work. My draw is pretty long. My bow is 51lb @29 drawn to 31". Probably too weak.
Sorry, not sure where that rant came from!

I hear ya! Just got a new to me bow today and played with it for an hour or so. Shot a few arrows nothing impressed me, haven't done any tuning yet. Had a black trad heavy cut 30" screwed a BH on it, perfect flight! Time after time in the middle. Come in to look for some, nada!

3Rivers still has all of the Arrow Dynamics shafts, Black Trad, Trad Lt and Trad Extra Lite plus all the wood grain trad and hammerhead trad shafts. Don't know why they are not showing online. But they are all available and in stock.

Good to hear. I did a product search on 3R's, nothing.
Sent ya a pm daveycrockett
Just went back on 3R's. The shafts are there now???? Go figure. :confused:
Yeah they are on there now. I really would go back to wood shafts if I couldn't get those. Like I said I got 2 doz coming. If those are good I'm going to stock up on about 3 doz more in a few months. I ordered mine 32 1/2" long.
From my 52-58# bows, the Black Trad Lites fly super. I made up 6 for small game and stump shooting.
I draw 27", cut them 28.5". Installed nock adapter and glue on nock, 100 grain brass insert, 35 grain BHA and with 125 gr heads, gives me 255 grains up front and total arrow weight of 600 grains.
More than enough for any big game animal and they fly like darts out to 40 yds.
