mine is open track and is the first euro hybrid that Daryl made, so is like a prototype and it shoots straight even with 3 bands.

here some pics from matt 88, he insert the tube all the way, woden dowell inside the CF tube and then he made the enclose track.

here are the pics
I have a Wong gun, I like it because it moves great in the water, also the back(wood) float like all wooden guns, but sometime it feels muzzle heavy (maybe some foam to make it more balance) it took me few shots to get used to it but I like it, I think is a design that it have some potencial to do new things, here is a pic of something that I like from Gibet Gacula, also if you do the tube and muzzle that looks like one piece or maybe like an oval tube, like some bicicles (cannondale, treck and cervelo) to gave some new looks and strengh. dont know maybe too much work or dificult on the wood part.
Also why dont you make two of the and send one down here to PR for testing:D

Forgot blank would be like 34" and the dimentions that jeff told (mine is 1.75 x 1.5), it could be a bonus if it could be enclose track:D.
Also anyone here know who can sell a 36" carbon fiber tube??????, I found only 60" and $$$$
Pucho
I ask matt about his last gun and he told me his is 6" deep, someone told me that Wong insert it 6", I was thinking like 10" deep because I want to make a design in the wood, here is a pic of matts setup for making the hole, also the tube is .995 osutside.

Correccion 55" = 137.5cm
52" = 130cm
otra cosa medida euro y medida america son 2 cosas diferentes, los euro por lo que tengo entendido, se mide de la entrada del gatillo hasta donde comienza el hueco de la goma.
La medida americana como ejemplo 55" es la medida completa del arpon del butt hasta el muzzle.
Por ejemplo mi seasniper mide 59" de largo pero la medida de la entrada del gatillo hasta donde comienza el hueco de las gomas es 130 cm.

My seasniper reef is 1.5 tall x 1.75 wide, el riffe euro esta mas o menos igual.
si lo haces 55" eso es mas o menos un 135cm

Marco buenos links, me gustan mucho los eba y la goma mimetic tremenda, despues que termine estos 2 arpones estare preparando un euro como 130 y me gustaria un hybrido.
Nice links Marco, i like the eba speargun and the mimetic bands, when I finish the guns I have will start on an euro 130cm and also would like to try a hybrid.

Those are called here "vjigantes" the masks are made of the fiber part of the coconut, you have to take out the seed and carve the outside, making the mouth and eyes, the hornrs are made of the vines that hold the coconuts and then is paint, they are used in different festivals around the islan, but mostly on Loiza a town in the north of PR they are very hard to make and use (heavy) they represent the "evil" and there are other vejigantes that represent the Sapnish people that they kill the "evil" but in reality is the Moros or Moors when they invade Spain, is a neat festival and we have 3 different vejigantes, we also have ones that are made of paper from Ponce (south part of PR) the ones of coconut from Loiza (northeast of PR) and the wire mask(Spanish representation and they are from Hatillo middle north of PR)

Gracias a todos por sus palabras sobre mi trabajo, here are few more pic of some other prints that I have, I havent made a print of freediving or spearfishing but will do few real soon and will keep you all guys posted.
Yaudon on triggers I have 2 poseidon sub and word great and I just ordered a M6 from Kitto, will let you know about this one soon, but I bet is a great one and smoth for more than 3 bands, dont knowif you have used before enclose track but they dont work to shoot inside caves, they are more like open reef and open water shots, a 130cm gun is a nice size reef clear water situstions.
Julios trigger looks really nice too, hope he jumps in this thread too.
