: if your darts are really bent (and you don't refer to "wobble" during flight), and you are not talking about something hardly noticable, then you've, unfortunately, bought crap.
:
: this "extender" stuff you are referring to also tends to be more crappy than useful. by the way, 16gr is not a recommended weight to start with. probably your darts are soft tip, so you should go as heavy as allowed. generally, a good weight for beginners would be somewhere in the 21-24 gram region. weight helps develop a good technique.
:
: nickel / silver is also a strange combination. this should either be nickel / tungsten or silver / tungsten.
:
: anyway, for $35 you should get a decent set of nickel / tungsten darts.
:
: so, most probably, the person who sold you this has really plucked a newbie...

Try aluminum shaft as they are lighter, or change the length of your nylon shaft. Not sure what flight size you are using, but that can make a difference also. Remember only make one change at a time to see what each one does individually
