Ssiredfish this gun is unlike a pipe gun (rail style) gun. This is a 2 piece gun barrel and handle. The handle is just to serve as ...well a handle. Everything else is a seperate entity. Meaning there no band pressure on handle like there would be on a rear handled pipe gun thst has the trigger mech built into the handle and then the handle pinned to the barrel. Hopefully im not being confusing. I would love to come down and spearfish with yall sometime i always enjoy watching yalls videos on youtube. We should have a triggerfish and mahi session popping up on video soon if my buddy ricky ever starts the editting.

Ssiredfish i see exactly what you saying about the handle!! Now i feel like an idiot. Upon firing its gonna pull band energy off the muzzle and smoke ya in the dome! I will dowel that handle now. Im also gonna carbon fiber the trigger gaurd and tie it into the barrel that way also. Thanks for the advice....sorry i wasnt picturing what you were trying to say.

Wong guns are kinda notorius for that happening and its all a one-peice into the trigger housing. The pistol grip gets splintered over time and then ka-pow, right in the kisser.... Video of the accident....I think http://outdoorchannel.com/showvideos...d=rUXhPn6QsLM1

Man that's some beautiful work!
Since we're giving advice, I recommend ballasting to the point where it is slightly negative with shaft in and slightly buoyant with shaft out. As long as you have line attached the shaft will always keep the gun from floating away. Still good practice to put your arm through the band after firing though. Also the weight should go forward along the barrel. I didn't put enough weight up front and my spear tip tries to float up while I am lining up a shot. May be less of an issue with the shorter gun.

I don't know anything about spear guns really, but that thing is pretty.
