Don so simply putting say a old shaft through the front of your gun and having the bands lay up on them will achieve this beneficial effect? If so why dont I see it more do you think?
Yes that would work providing the barrel is not weakened. I like to see wood muzzles that have this geometry factored into the build.
The euro guns do a good job with this as the muzzles are designed with this in mind.
I'm heading out to do some boat work, I revisit this thread.

So I have seen many threads on the net about speargun builders looking for that perfect groove to set up their bands into a elevated and even layup against the gun as they are stretched out into the loaded position, it is touted that it reduces muzzle jump.
My question is this: is it something important, functional or even useful?Yes.
Get the rubber to pull on the same axis of asymmetry as the shaft.....Chicks dig it.
and you'll shoot straighter and get bigger fish.Cheers, Don

Looks very nice and its mobile from the looks of it. So how do you bolt that puppy onto an inflatable?
Thanks.
The bottom floor of the console is reinforced in the corners where Ti hardware runs thru the inflatable's floor panel. The radar arch and console will sit on the same floor panel with the arch or A-frame bracketed to the transom. I'm in contact with someone that may donate some trick bonded Alum honeycomb panels for me to use in the build as well. I'll show detail for the deck as I get closer to set it.Here is a image of Avon CRRC showing the floor. There are aluminum slats/plate which span the beam of the hull in pockets within the ballistic Kevlar reinforced decking materiel. Mine has Aluminum floor plates that sit on top of this.

How to blow your pub crawl $.
Garmin 440S GPS /depth combo and a few bits.The console needs a good bath tomorrow before I get deep into wiring. Next week I need to procure water pressure, water temp, and amp gauges to complete the helm.

Another square hole cut to mount the last switch/fuse panel for the stereo and spot light. I have one more hole in the fiberglass to cut for the tach, then the itchy part is done and I can wash off all the dust.
No boat is done till you drip a little blood on it.;)Cheers, Don

I use line that is anything but pink or orange.FWIW. Hi vis yellow is what I spool on my reel guns. I don't dive deeper than 100 FSW and yellow has a wave length that hangs in there at that depth.
