I am a beginner and I am interested in buying a spergun for the 1st time.Becasue this is my first gun I do not want to spend a lot of money and at the same time it has to be a good quality.I am interested in either of the three and I have been able to find three shops that I can buy them from.Obviously each shop would recommand me theirs as the best brand,so I have thought that you guys should not be biased and might have experience with these type of guns.I would be using it in depths not more than 12 meters so 90cm should be ideal right?Which one of the three would you go for?Thanks in advance
 
Hi,
If you haven't already made your mind up, I can't comment on the other makes but can say I bought and used the commanche 90 last year and have found it to have been a good first gun. If I get another gun it will be a 60 for poorer vis / hunting closer to rocky areas, but will stick with my commanche for a while yet. For my 60 I will prob go with another make, but mainly to try something different after proper research.
This has been my experience in British waters and only to as deep as about 8 meters.
Good luck!!

Camanche 90's are good basic guns. Ive had mine for about 6 years now and its been dragged over reefs bashed about and its still going strong.

The standard bands are good enough but I upgraded mine to 18mm's a while back and its spot on
