Hello everybody!

I need some advice, I'm practically new to the sport but with some background as a freediver, fisherman and hunter.
I want to buy a gun, about 38-42 inches. I love riffes but they seem to be a little too much for my budget and experience :duh , I was reading and doing some research on JBLs and Rhino sea hornets, and they look OK acording to what I'm looking for, and the prices are much more affordable than riffes. I'll love to hear some comments and advice on these guns from experienced people like most of you. Basically I'm looking for something polivalent, I'll be shooting on rocky bottom most of the time with some sporadic expedition to blue waters. I'm kind of weekend warrior , and I'll be able to hunt maybe twice a month. Consider that and let me know what you think.

Best regards from Mexico, and if there is any hunter in Puerto vallarta looking for a spearfishing buddy... Let me know!

Luis.
 
luis if i were you i go ahead and get a nice euro gun such as rob allen of rabitech but if you not in the mood for a euro gun the id get a riffe or a wong. i know the riffe and wongs are expensive but you wont be disapointed when you get it. also if get a sea hornet or jbl you will peobly be dissapointed and end up wanting another gun for more accuracy. also get a gun longer than you think you need because you can always cut down a longer gun gun be never extend a shorte one. good luck and happy hunting
