They are weights. One looks like a replacement barrel seal (guessing). If you take the grip off the handle, you can place a weight in there. If you take the muzzle off you can put weight in there. This allows you to balance the gun the way you prefer, to compensate for fresh or salt water, for a reel or no reel. That sort of thing.

special extra kit that you hook onto your tadger to balance/fine tune your neutral boyancy when hunting above the kelp looking for bass in gullies and holes.

enjoy!

Down next wednesday, afternoon, 1 night. Weather looks superb.

Speak weekend.

:DNice! Optional extra muzzle weights would be my guess - although usually it is extra buoyancy that is required at the muzzle that I've needed. HF2 has more voluminous barrel than normal though doesn't it:

Maybe the bit on the left is an alternative barrel seal and the bits on the right screw into that to provide an adjustable weight system inside the end of the barrel (most likely the muzzle end). Love the way Omer like to keep you guessing! (e.g. Their instructions don't include spear-line rigging information).

Alternatively, maybe something laying around the Omer workshop when the bin was full!:D

I received that bunch of extras when i got my HF2 also; for me the balance is very good, except on/near the surface where it's a little nose-heavy - as intimated by MrX.
