  • 2 little mid handle guns.

    G'day all.


    I made a couple of little mid handled guns a while ago.


    First one:
    Timber: Padauk and Australian Beech
    Mech: Reef
    Handle: Ulusub
    Finish: Epoxy (Phil's)


    Second one:
    Timber: Mahogany (laminated)
    Mech: Reef
    Handle: Ulusub
    Finish: Epoxy camo







    These are nice little guns for hunting in caves, ledges, wash and kelp. The red and white gun has been balance for a 8mm straight shaft and the blue camo is a dedicated pranger gun.


    For those who are not familiar with the name, a pranger:

    Are you afraid of a little water? Worried you will rust? <img src= " class="smiley" srcset="https://spearfishing.world/forum/images/smilies/emojione/1f606@2x.png 2x" height="23" width="23" loading="eager" data-tooltip="biggrin" aria-label="biggrin">


    Hope we can catch up again soon mate.

    Thanks guys. A very warm welcome indeed.


    What are you doing on the computer Jono, shouldn't you be building a deck?:hooray:


    I was going to wrap a little mid handle with carbon tomorrow but a memorial comp is on so I am taking some juniors for a dive instead.
    Hopefully next weekend i can wrap it and maybe a couple of week after I will have it finished.


    I don't have high hopes as this is the first time I am trying vacuum bagging. :krezy:

    Hi all


    I have been fortunate enough to have talk with Henrik AKA onkelhedde and he linked me a few threads of his beautiful gun builds. He certainly is a master craftsman.


    I am looking forward to reading lots and occasionally sharing a gun build or two.


    Regards


    Darren.
