Small reef gun in the U.S.

[HawaiiFreediver]

Hey folks, I am looking for a smaller (55 cm or less) mini spear gun for hunting the reefs here in Hawaii. I found two guns that I was interested in and they are the following;

IMERSION, CHALLENGER INOX 55 cm
Sporasub Aspic 55 cm

I chose these guns because of the price and size, but I am having a hard time finding these guns here in the U.S. Anyone know where I can purchase these guns without the cost of shipping killing me?? I already checked here in Hawaii and they are charging $95 and up for these mini guns, (they are listed as being about $55.00...so I don't want to buy from our local stores) I found this gun on Apnea.com or something, but their in Europe and they want $34.00 dollars just for shipping. Any help would do...oh yeah, I know that other companies make small guns, but they are charging over 100 Dollars for them and that's more than I want to spend on a "backup" gun that I will only use on rare occassion...thanks!

92 dollars in hawaii (don't ask me how I found it, it's a long story), 38 euros at kick-off sales here in Italy where the aspic is made.

Unfortunately, shipping does have its cost: I recently sent a speargun to a friend from Italy to Usa, and shipping was as expensive as the gun itself. Then the importer must gain his dimes, and the reseller too. You must face it as facts of life. Tried on e-bay?

Thansk Spaghetti...yeah, I checked on Ebay and JoeDiver used to sell it and shipping was only 15 Dollars, but they don't carry it anymore....shoulda bought it when I had the chance..darn..and oh yeah, I know that Hanapa'a sells it..they are the ones that were charged so much for em....there is also a place here called Maui Dive shop that sells them as well as the Beuchat mini's...might go with that gun after all...about the same price, but their closer to my house...thanks.
