Hi guys,
I have a Seac Hunter (like an Asso) that I wanted to put a GoPro on and I just wanted to share one possible way of doing it. I am sure, I am not the first at this
Browsing through Omer's catalogue, I noticed they had a reel adapter for 40mm barreled airguns and thought that instead of adding a reel to it, I could screw a plate onto it for a camera mount. The pics should be pretty self-explanatory. Otherwise, just ask
(I might do a few shots tomorrow showing it mounted on the gun)

The ring holds on to barrel firmly. I just wish, I could somehow swing the mount longitudinal for easier traveling. The plate is a tail for a 700 size RC Heli that I found cheap on a Chinese online store. It may be a bit too wobbly. It is 2mm fiberglass with a tiny layer of CF for looks.

The ring costs 6-8 euros but some shops will only sell a pack (think it is 5-6 pc). The Heli Tail for the plate was around 8 euros, I think.
(Here is one link to the Reel Adapter http://www.leisurepro.com/1/2/10927...ket-universal-pneumatic-speargun-bracket.html)

I am adding one pic of how I made it on my One Air, but the idea is the same and if you want to use the Reel Adapter ring to also fit a reel, then that of course is possible.

Good Innovation!

Looking forward to hearing more about the airone.

Thanks
If anyone decides to do this, I will recommend going up in thickness on the plate. Mine is 2mm and too wobbly.
