I have some question on how to improve my speargun.
I have a Mares 1100 Cyrano speargun.
I would like to improve the shaft it bends when I try to load it.
I heard of this Sea Spring Coil I was wondering what that is.
 
Add a rail if the gun does not have one and use a heavier spear or thinner bands. That should do the trick :)

...or buy a Rabitech!

On the serious side, you can buy a stainless steel shaft (for the source, you should tell me where you live to suggest you a closer on line shop), then pressurize the gun at 25 bar/atm and there you go.
For further improvement, use a more fluid oil (motorbike fork oil will do) and enlarge the side holes of the muzzle for a quicker water output.
Moreover, if you want to spend 100 euro on it, you can upgrade the gun with a "Mamba" kit.
 
Yes of coarse rofl rofl
Seriously, o its a pneumatic oops, disregard my post that would work only for a band gun I know bugger all about pneumatics sorry...:eek:

put your left hand on the bottom of the shaft (just above the muzzle) as you load the spear with your right hand... maybe its because the cyrano uses a 7mm shaft so at that length it could bend ( i have a 6.5mm spear on my mamba 90 and it also bends so thats how i solve it, nothing wrong with the spear).... the cyrano 110 is supposed to be a serious piece of equipment, i would also recommend installing a mamba kit.. people swear by them on Cyranos
