I just opened my one air 90
The muzzle has two o rings.
In the pics it doesent show that.
The users guide is crap. It has
Instructions and shows fig 1 but there is no
Figures in the manual.
Is the user manual multi-lingual? Omer usually have four (maybe more) languages on each page with the drawings opposite so that you see the diagram while reading the relevant text. Mares tend to put drawings in one (Italian) section which you have to refer back to when reading one of the other languages. Maybe you could put a scan or image up of some of the pages.
Just for fun the "Nightfighter" version mentioned earlier on this thread! Something to put inside those empty side tanks.
The problem was already known about, it was just that his gun was sent out without the red sticker. If you read back he actually told us that himself somewhat later.So, got my One Air 120.
- When I received the gun it had a red warning sticker around the handle saying that the line release HAD to be engaged prior to loading, otherwise gun could accidentally misfire...! So, perhaps that's what came out of Broseidon's experience - that Sporasub investigated and found out they had a designed a trigger that was only safe when operated in one of two possible ways of loading it.

Hi Pete,
As always, great to hear from you.
Are you sure, it was a known issue back then? I have to admit, that it's been a while since I read that thread and I could go back and read the whole thing, but that's for later - now, the sea is waiting
But from memory I don't think Broseidon (or anyone else) knew back then that it could misfire if the line release was not engaged prior to loading. (Neither do I think, that it is 100% identified as that being the reason his did as Broseidon says, that Sporasub, despite promises, never got back to him to share their findings.)
Possibly back when his decided to go off, none of the Air Ones shipped with that sticker? Mine had a yellow sticker AND the red one. Also, as far as I could tell, there was no mentioning of this issue in the manual (I'll check again later). So, it seems like an afterthought. Something they discovered very late in the process (maybe after shipping the first ones) and instead of redesigning and further delaying, they chose the cheaper option of printing a bunch of red stickers.
Anyways, I like the gun so far. Hell, I like the trigger a lot. Just not 100% cool with shipping a product with a design error that surely could have been properly taken care off. What happens when these guns make their way to second and third owners who are more likely never to have heard of the important "line release first" loading sequence? (If I ever sell mine, I will stress this of course).
Again, I like, like, like the gun. But I also like nice principles
So, got my One Air 120.
Have only had it out a few days and since I am still new to spearing and I only ever had an Seac Hunter 90 (like an Asso) before, it is limited how much of a review I can give. Better perhaps to shoot some questions at me and I'll see what I can do.
As said, feel free to ask questions and I'll see what I can do,
David
