Roberto Reyes can answer that, but I think it's not legal. Pero como todo aqui es una jodienda saber donde en la ley esta.

What a great video, just the bare minimun for spearfishing; a gun, goggles and his heart. Think about this when you bitch about gear.:)

Nice read Chris, being in the water is what really counts.

Thanks guys.
sdeisen, after rough cuttin the handle scales I bolt them to the handle one at time on it's respective side and finish the cut in the router table with a flush trim bit with bearing. Final shaping is done by rounding off the edges and some wood filing and sanding by hand.

Billy, is that the color mahogany takes with clear epoxy or did you add something to it? I find the burgundy color very nice.
It is clear epoxy, the gun looks real nice in the sun. There is lighter and darker colors in the same plank of mahogany and also there is different kinds of mahogany. If you notice there are light and dark lams that were cut from the same board of wood.
I just noticed you edited your post;
Yes the angle in the back serves two purposes, one it gives a better angle for the handle and also raises it a bit to be a little in line with the shaft. Just wait to see the rear handle euro that's coming next with a sharper angle on the back. I need that damn trigger.....

I also use between 12'' (30 cm) and 14'' (35 cm) with 13'' being almost perfect (just came from measuring my guns now) like Dan said but just never got into it much and now that Dan mentioned it.....it's weird.

Beautiful.
You used a bit of hardware from every manufacturer so no one feels left out LOL
What is the stock height and width? Is it laminated? Why the muzzle shape? What is this special epoxy? What was it like to put on? What is that recessed area around the line release arm?
Thanks for the compliments.
Stock height is 1-1/2 inches, width is 1-7/8''. Five 1/2'' laminations ( before routing stock ) 4 vertical, 1 horizontal on bottom ( people usually put it on top only to split it in half with the track ) G- FLEX epoxy for lams. Muzzle shape just to try something a little different. ''Special epoxy'' is trade secret <img src= " height="23" srcset="https://spearfishing.world/forum/images/smilies/emojione/1f606@2x.png 2x"> if it works I let you know what is it, but it is real easy to brush on. I mix it with xylene 50-50. The area around the line release is actually a cover for the homemade self setting spring in case it needs to be replaced. -
To tell you the truth, I don't know yet probably two 5/8's. I still ned to balance it but still waiting on the shaft. I used a shaft from Roberto Reyes that he lent me for mock up.
BTW it is from the same wood that I sent you!
