First gun im going to buy.

I need help deciding.

Water here is very clear, prob dive around to deepest place 15m. can see probably 8 -12 meters when its good (often in summer)

1) beuchat revo concept (looks like a copy of pathos sniper) 100
2) Pathos sniper 95
3) Beuchat hero 100 /110.

Currently Beuchat revo concept looks like kind of a copy of pathos sniper , and is cheaper in my area.
Would like to hear people that had the chance to touch these 3 spearguns before. How are their rollerguns?!

Thnx
 
Dont even bother buying a beuchat, they're made out of cheaper materials, rust and break easily. If you can buy a rob allen, buy one! If you cant? Go with pathos.
 
All 3 sound like decent choices to me. I've not used any of them but like my Beauchat fins and gloves.
 
I wouldn't buy a roller-gun for your first spear gun. More complexity than is good for a beginner :D

Roller-guns have negligible recoil though. ;). [But that's not a big problem for most spearguns that I've used.]

Seconding this, a rollergun is a bit much for a first gun. Probably the Pathos Sniper is the best option based on the features it offers, plus it can follow the common path of an increasingly experienced spearo: single-banded, double-banded, and then switch the muzzle for the Pathos roller one. All with the same gun! (Which is also comfortable to use.)
