I’ve got an idea in my head to build a couple of simple pipe guns, both 90cm, one 16mm roller, one 16mm single band. – both 7mm spears, 20-30cm overhang.
In my imagination I’d end up with 2 compact guns with good variation of use (for near Brisbane water), same handles & feel in the hand, same rubbers, same spears – so easy to swap parts around on a trip to stay up and running. Having not spent a load of cash on an experiment.
I have no aspirations to be a carpenter so am happy with pipe & pre-formed rail, keeping life as simple as possible this 1st time around.
As far as parts go roller kit from here:-
Roller spearguns Spear Fishing Charters
(unless other kits are recommended)
Other parts from here:-
SuperFrog - Offshore Spearfishing and Freediving
If there is any advice about how to build a simple pipe gun, fitting the mechs, muzzles, getting balance right etc. – or on choice of mechs/other parts it would be great.
So yes, please tell me if I’m going down the wrong path/it generally a stupid idea.
