I tried remeasuring my feet and if I weight the ball of my foot more they measure slightly longer — around 302-303mm. My experience with the sizing of omer foot pockets still seems a little inconsistent with other people's...

Replied to the thread Omer Stingray Foot Pocket Sizing.PostOmer stingray size 49-50 is the next logical choice. Available from spearfishing store https://spearfishing.store/omer-stingray-foot-pockets
I do have a doubt about your measurement because my foot is 28cm and size 45-46 is a little big on me. Your foot… -

Replied to the thread Paul Horolan timber speargun.PostA Google search on Paul Horolan turned up nothing, so I decided to check for an obituary in Hawaii and this came up. There were a few results for a “Paul Horolan”, but I think that this is the most likely one. I have not retrieved the entry yet, so… -

Replied to the thread Paul Horolan timber speargun.PostMore images of Paul Horolan’s earlier gun judging by its use of copper elements for spear and trigger mechanism.

The metal shroud muzzle is a form of hoop muzzle to allow a tabbed shaft through and the rubber band strands are anchored in… -

Replied to the thread ALPHA C1 Pneumatic Speargun 14 mm inner barrel.PostResetting the releasing valve for the next shot you push the rear butt forwards against its internal biasing coil spring. You cannot screw the rear butt right off as it travels between set limits. Dismantling the gun you can, but that involves undoing a…
