I was at Xel-Há Park | Cancun activities snorkeling on my honeymoon. A Cuda' as big as they come came swimming by in waist deep water weaving through 3 dozen children and tourists wading in the water. I was just standing there putting my mask on and this dark figure cruises by 2 feet away from my legs and no one in he water saw it even once. Amazing a creature that large could slide right on my without bumping a single splashing tourist.

Oh Kauai..... love that place. Magical.

Batch to batch rubber is going to have variance. No one know more about this than Don.
I just tied up some 5/8" Primeline rubber at 300% elongation on a short gun and I could not load it. Not because I could not pull any harder. But it just felt like it was done stretching. It was pulled as far as it wanted to go. Kind of like using a torque wrench, sometimes the feel of the bolt being stretched gives a better result than a torque wrench. I only needed a 1/4" longer wishbone, but on a short band, a 1/4" is a long ways. -
I believe in Science and empirical evidence. Who has a test fixture set up?

I'd pay good money for those tacos and some beer on a tropical beach right now.

I'd fire it. The rear end/handle does look odd.
-
AR handle allows for a more natural grip when the arm is fully extended before the shot.
Fully extended, that is key. That is why I prefer the angle the AR sits at.
-
You are not the first to comment about the difference. I prefer the AR angle. Especially with the houge rubber grip. All I shoot is mid-handles, perhaps that is why. Ford/Chevy humans are incredibly adaptive to poor ergonomics.

welcome. looking forward to some fish stories

Amazing fish! What kind of gun is that? crazy big trigger

Old thread I know......
Dan, did you ever get these wet and kick them around in the sea? Or did you stop testing after freaking out because there have a slot in the middle? I read through all this thread for the first time today, but still do not understand the big deal with cutting the slot in the blade. Lots of folks have told me verbally how much they enjoy the fit and feel of these. People have used them with Dive R's, Carbono GFT's, Makos and various other blades without issue.They look well done, it would have been great to get an update after you swam with them for a few weeks.

The only comment I can add is that I do not like my Riffe socks. Feels like two big soggy pancakes duct taped to my feet.

Cool Dan. Sounds really affordable. Good luck with these, you will sell a ton I am sure. Do you rig them with the Speardiver rubber? Have I seen that Muzzle prior? What plastic is it made out of.
-
Sigalsub rubber is THE SAME as speardiver. I know it first hand from a Sigal Sales Representative who told me where they get the bands from.
And i know that is the same (american) manufacturer.
I have never heard of Sigalsub. What products do you enjoy from them?

It was an excellent day on a pristine CA beach regardless. Suns out buns out.
-
3 hours kicking in current today in 8'viz. No WSB seen or heard.
walls of bait though. Most I have even seen at this particular beach reef. -
Need to ship a speargun to Australia from USA. Anyone have an affordable service to recommend? FedX looked like $366.

I know you asked Dan but since i took the pics for these bands, I'll share
The inserts need to be short...
here's mineWow!!! nice knot work.
Does that fit into the small ID rubber?
