Are the clips that 3 River's sells the good ones or are they the small ones?  

$55.00/100 there.

Trap - Just checked the arrow clips on 3 Rivers. They are the good style, adjustable and larger...

I'm pretty sure I've found the source for arrow clips.  If we can get 1001 ordered we can get them for .34 each plus shipping.  PM me if you're interested in getting in on a bulk purchase.  

The next break in price is for 5000 or more.  Not sure we can hit that but I'm confident we can find enough folks to make the 1000+ order.

I sent the info to Wade and I'll wait for him to confirm that they are the correct clips.

Trap - Yes you have the correct arrow clips, the one shown on the right. It can be adjusted to accommodate various shaft diameters. When tightening or loosening the screw, the amount of tension on the bottom of the clip, determines the distance between the two arms and their tension on the shaft.

The adjustable arrow clips on the right are far better then the smaller ones that is shown on the left...

I don't collect AMO 8-32 Screw-In heads, but here is a hint for those who do collect them...

Most collectors agree that adjustable arrow clips work best for displaying traditional glue on broadheads.

For those who collect the AMO 8-32 Screw-In heads, the simple shadow box design works well and is far less expense and less work than using arrow clips, threaded bushings and lengths of shaft material.

The threaded base of the AMO 8-32 fits into a hole in the horizontal boards.

If blades are glued into the body, AMO 8-32 Screw-In heads are easily moved from one position to another.

The most restrictive feature of the shadow box design is the length of the heads. While AMO 8-32 Screw-In heads almost always easily fit in the shadow box height of 4-1/8" between boards.

Many traditional heads are far too long to fit in the 4-1/8" space between the horizontal boards.

 

Heads are easily moved from hole to hole...

Rick - Some guys who collect the AMO 8-32 Screw-In heads as well as the Traditional heads, keep the two styles in separate display cases.

Using a shadow box design display case for the AMO 8-32 Screw-In heads saves them a lot of time, money, and space.
