Big piece of stick

[jimy286]

OK I doooo NOT get it…

I not saying euro guns are better (as that’s rhetorical!!!:t) But I just do not understand something???

So why is there quite often a big piece of extra wood at the end of a big wood canon? All its doing is making it longer, harder to load and maneuver and its not getting length close to the fish as the handle is a quarter way down the gun.

Now Darl Wong I get as he puts the spear and rubbers rite to the end of the gun. Hybrid - Wongguns.com

But this gun does not….

It is a very beautiful gun and well made I do not mean any offence I JUST wanted to use it as an example I hope the owner does not mind.

Some people prefer to load their gun on their hip. And the big extension makes it easier.

Whoa man... You may want to be careful throwing toni's new gun under fire here!:blackeye In addition the the hip loading the extention makes for a point to help track the gun with your other hand. Most times a gun like this has to be moved with two hands.

You cant quite compare this gun to a hybrid or a euro gun. If your shooting a gun with this much power you need mass to counter the recoil. With out it you will break your hand.
