Dynema Wishbones

[Coral Sniper]

I always tie my dynema spearline .For your wishbone get some of those small ball sinkers that have a little hole in them and put the line through the hole and tie a plain knot. Do they still make your gun and if they do were did you get it.

Looks like a Dessault gun, check out;

I don't think you should crimp any fiber line, including dyneema.

Coral Sniper i brought my gun from a shop called Mio Palmo in the south of france on the internet.A great gun very very accurate..

I think i will have to try a session of tying spears with dynema and mono with crimps and test firing underwater to see if there is any damage..

I have been looking for a gun like that for a long time. Just like the black viper but with better quality. Thanks for the websites guys

Hugues Dessault has always made very good guns and the one owned by Glowworm (the "Quatro Carbone" if I'm not wrong) is probably his best from what I've been told.
However, if you're looking for something "like the black viper, but with better quality", you could also give a look to this one. In Italy it's widely agreed this is the most accurate gun on earth. Features allu tube covered by a shell of polyurethane with a full length rail on it. Release mechanism is SS tested to 220 kilograms. The muzzle is articulated to prevent the barrel to "whip-up" when shooting. Pinpoint accurate.

I was reading some of glowworms old post about getting his gun and I saw the price and am not shure if thats what I want to do now........ Spaghetti, would it be easy to get a seatec to the US, and are there any problems with the gun other than accuracy?

[glowworm]

Hey Coral Sniper the Dessault Gun is not only very accurate but mine has been through some very rough treatment and does not even have 1 scratch on it.I'm not too sure about shipping to the US but they do speak english in the shop so you can phone them and ask.

I know that all the effort i put in to get mine was worth it

[Coral Sniper]

Hey glowworm thanks for the help. I think when you got your gun the price was 200 something euro but now its like 350 euro for the 130cm its a bit to much for me when you have to add shiping to the US aswell,but thankyou very much for your help

My new Picasso Dynema Wishbones turned up today from Subprof.I did need to file down the notch of my spear where the old metal wish bone had cut into it.

File the notches extra smooth, and I mean EXTRA smooth. You can start with a file or dremel for the rough edge and finish with fine sandpaper. Any edgy part will shaff and cut your bridle. Been there done that.

I don't think dynema or any other woven line should be crimped. I use knots.
