Darren's Review https://www.dartsnutz.net/forum/showthre...?tid=33442
I posted this in another thread, but since more threads are coming up about the confusion of L-Style and LARO products, I thought I'd start another thread separately.
Hope this helps. Of course, I too may be confused! Guests cannot see images in the messages. Please register at the forum by clicking here to see images. Guys, please feel free to point out any mistakes.
Think of the system as having TWO separate shafts - L-STYLE, and L-STYLE LARO or just L LARO (NO 'Style' to avoid confusion).
L-STYLE Shafts
L-STYLE (Locked) - https://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/3...SY355_.jpg
L-STYLE - Silent (Spinning) - https://www.dartproshop.com/images/shaft...pin_01.jpg
L-STYLE - Carbon (Locked) - https://www.edarts.net/shafts/l_shaft_ca...ock260.jpg
L-STYLE - Silent Carbon (Spinning) - https://shop.r10s.jp/count-up/cabinet/sh...6112_1.jpg
You can tell the L-STYLE by the LARGE pointy bits that are just below where the flight sits.
Supposed to use Shell Lock and conical Shell Lock Caps or Champagne caps, OR Champagne Flights with the flat-top Champagne Caps. However, I find that flights of 75 micron ridged/textured flights / 100 microns fits snugly without any caps, but you run the risk of robin hoods. Flights do not fly off routinely.
L-Style Shafts CAN be used with ...

CHAMPAGNE CAPS

SHELL LOCK with NORMAL Folding flights

https://www.edarts.net/access/shell_s4.jpg
https://www.edarts.net/access/shells_300.jpg
Note: Champagne caps are flat on the top, while Shell Lock Caps are conical, with 90 degree grooves for the normal folded flight fins to fit into. They are DIFFERENT sizes and shape holes and caps.
ADDED NOTE: DNF Member Gadasoft mentioned that L-Style Silent works 'perfectly' with the Winmau WHIZLOCK punch and cap system - https://www.dartsnutz.net/showthread.php?tid=14384

+ Added Note: The black Whizlock caps are said to be paint only, and will get scratched up. You could go for the Silver ones if you don't want that to happen.
Now ...
L-LARO Shafts
Note: The L LARO shafts only have a VERY SMALL protruding bit below where the flight sits.
L LARO (Locked) - https://www.horizondarts.com/library/Shafts/laro1.jpg
L LARO Silent (Spinning) - https://www.edarts.net/shafts/silent_lengths.jpg
L LARO Carbon (Locked) - https://vegadarts.com/images/NewImages/l...on_360.jpg
L LARO Carbon Silent (Spinning) - There is NO L LARO Carbon Spinning shaft at the moment.
BOTH the LARO shafts, WITH the plastic RINGS on them can be used with the MOULDED Flight-L with the slot PUNCHED in the flight at the factory - https://vegadarts.com/images/product_ima...Opaque.jpg
LARO shafts can also be used with:
1) Normal folding flights with the Shell Lock punched in them, and the conical Shell lock caps
OR
2) NORMAL folding flights WITH or WITHOUT any rings or caps. I think I read somewhere that the TARGET Slot Punch works for this, but please check around first.

For LARO shafts, I THINK I read somewhere that they DO NOT go well with Champagne Flights/Caps, but I'm not certain.

HOW TO GET RID OF THE RATTLE with any of the SILENT Stems
Have seen several times members have asked about getting rid of the rattle, and I've described it, but here's a simple graphic which is self-explanatory. Hope it helps. Guests cannot see images in the messages. Please register at the forum by clicking here to see images.
