what keeps a hunter from sucking a poision dart back into his/her mouth if he/she suddenly has a case of the hiccups while hunting, if the gun is at his/her lips?

Under International Law, blow guns must be inspected annually to be sure that the safety catch works properly, the exhaust regulator is fully functional, and the mouth bar is firmly in place.
With these new regulations signed into law, and manufacturers complying world-wide, last year only four Jivaros, 2 Mindanoa'ans, 3 Ubi warriors, and one Texan died from poison-dart inhalation.
However, the case in Texas is still under investigation. Police found out that, just hours before death, the Texan told his wife that her new dress made her look fat.

For one the needle is pointing the other way.
And for two, who the hell hunts with a blow gun?! Besides... on some blowguns the mouth end is smaller than the end of the dart. Meaning the dart will not fit thru.

On mine there is nothing stopping someone from sucking the dart backwards.
