So I'm down here in Belize and I finally got my speargun in the water today. My question has to do with ballast. With the shaft in, the gun sinks as expected.
What I didn't expect, is that it sinks even without the shaft in. I did change out the original handle frame with a different one, but I don't see how that could be the problem, as it is lighter than the original...the frame is identical too. All I did was put an AR 15 grip in place of the teak handle.
The gun an Andre euro RH 120 if that is any help. I'm new to spearguns and any information on what to expect would be helpful...I was under the impression that the gun should float after firing.
Thanks in advance.
Matt
