Thanks for the detailed response Dan! Could you explain why you like that particular configuration? I think it would help all novices trying to decide on a gun.

Lunker, why do you prefer a float line over reel? I've read that it'd be good free shaft reef fish. Learn to take better shots and the shaft isn't going to go too far compared to shooting a pelagic. Also, what's the difference between S. African open muzzle and reg open muzzle?
So basically, as far as mid-ranged guns, RA for rails and Riffe for wood. And Dan's Freediver. Any other reccomendations?
Thanks for the advice!

Hi all, I'm really interested in getting into spearfishing and freediving. I've been doing research on guns and realize that it ultimately comes down to personal preference. Could you guys tell me what is your ideal setup/configuration and why? Wood/rail, open/closed muzzle, reel/float line, etc....
As far as specific brands and models. I know I will absolutely get hooked to spearfishing and free diving. So for my first gun, I'm looking for something mid-priced. What would be your top 3?
Thanks,

Hi all!
Well I've been thinking about getting into freediving/spearfishing for a few years now. Got the freedive gear, and sling. Been trying to figure what to get for my first gun. Right now I'm leaning towards a 110 Mako, but unsure how to rig it. I swam competitively as a kid for 15 years or so. Now I wish I had the lung capacity back then! Used to be able to swim 200 yards w/o breathing. I'm looking forward to gaining insight from all of you!Ryan
