128** [[ShockAndAwe Electric Arrows]]: Also known as "shock", "stun", or "taser" arrows, these are designed to deliver a powerful electric shock to incapacitate enemies in a non-lethal manner. Similarly these arrows can be quickly adjusted to function as EMP grenades, causing a small explosion that emits a localized electromagnetic pulse upon detonation, causing various unshielded electronics to malfunction.
129** [[GrapplingHookPistol Grapple Arrows]]: These arrows are equipped with grapple hooks and cables, useful for creating zip-lines or climbing. Upon firing, these arrows often attach a high-tensile strength wire to Barton's bow, but Barton can also quickly calibrate these arrows to dispense their wire in several other manners to accomodate the situation.
130** [[SizeShifter Pym Particle Arrows]]: These arrows uses Pym Particles to temporarily change the size of its struck target. These are experimental (and expensive), so Barton only carries two such arrowheads (one each of a red and a blue) in his quiver and has yet to deploy either in the field.
