Drawing a vector list

A n00b question - I have a 3D vector list L={{A1,A2},{B1,B2},{C1,C2}...
where for example A1={1,2,3},A2={4,5,6} and so on. I want to draw
the vectors A1->A2 etc. LINE has no arrowhead option, ARROW only eats 2D vectors
and VECTORPLOT3D has yet another unfitting syntax. I could do a hackjob and
first draw LINE[L] and then make a loop adding little arrowheads at all #2 
(and I would have to compute their directions too!), 
but what is the most elegant way to program this without any DO loops?
