No it's not the Tempest, it's said to be completely new gun. Omer's chairman a couple months ago said the the new gun was likely to be unveiled at the "Eudi Show" (diving exibit) in Rome at the end of February. But he wasn't sure it could be ready in time. However the end of February is next week, so let's wait and see.
The gun has been described like a pneumatic version of the Omer Cayman HF: shaped ellyptical outer barrell for better tracking, inner barrell in a higher position, trigger located behind, and not under the end of the barrell (just like in the Cayman handle).
If it won't be displayed at the Exibit in Rome next week, it will be later in the next months.
PS: I agree with Spaniard. Mares and Cressi is the way to go. The best price/quality IMHO is the Mares Spark (also marketed as Sporasub Stealth, but it's the same gun with a different name). If the trouts are big as you say, and the australian water is clear as I fancy, a Mares Spark 97 (with eventual Mamba kit), will bring into your fridge more trouts than you can shake a stick at.
