The invention relates to a dart (10) comprising a body, the body defining a chamber (24) having a plunger located therein to operatively deliver a substance through a hypodermic needle (32) extending through a front end of the body, and a retainer comprising a barb body locatable on the hypodermic needle (32) characterised in that the barb body is threaded. The invention further relates to a dart retainer, wherein the retainer comprises of a threaded barb body locatable on a hypodermic needle (32) of a dart (10).

A remote delivery device is disclosed which has a tubular body and a tubular tail piece. The tubular body is crimped onto said tail piece at a desired axial position with a rearmost edge of the body abutting the protrusions at only contact segments of the rear-most edge. With the provision of spaced-apart protrusion on the tail piece, axial expansion of said tubular body caused by a crimping operation imparts less stress and axial force on the tail piece as compared to stress and force which would be imposed upon a tail piece which has a singular annular abutment extending around an entire circumference of said tail piece. This results in reducing a rate of failure of said tail piece breaking off from said body when the remote delivery device is subjected to outside stresses or forces and allows for the use of a wider range of acceptable crimp lengths.

A non-lethal tranquilizer bullet is provided. The non-lethal tranquilizer bullet may include a housing defining an internal space and having a non-penetrating distal tip. A plunger assembly, a tranquilizer fluid, and at least one plunger stop may be disposed in the internal space. The plunger assembly can include a piston and a needle, and the needle may include a shaft terminating in a tip. The shaft may have a plurality of holes disposed along its length. When the bullet is fired from a gun and contacts a living body, the plunger assembly can move toward the non-penetrating distal tip such that the needle tip breaches the housing tip and enters the living body. The force of the plunger assembly moving forward may disperse the tranquilizer fluid into the living body through at least one of the plurality of holes. The plunger stop can prevent the piston from exiting the tip.
