Hi from a newbie!
Don't know where to start, to write all story or just important things!
All story :) !
I started to spearfishing last year!
I used speargun Omer Excalibur 75 from my cousin!
This year I decided to buy my own gun!
Friend recommended me a 90 cm gun!
Finaly I went to Zagreb International sports and boat show at February!
Selection of guns were huge!!!!
I decided to take Mares Phantom Fiberglass 95 cm gun! It looks so invoative and nice rofl!
That wasn't the cheapest, but neither the most expensive gun!
I payed in 1/4 of price in advance!
What I didn't know, that was a world premiere of Mares phanton, and actually i bought a gun, which was not in production then!
So after 4 months I'm still waithing for the gun, and I don't know what to do,
to stop the procedure and buy another gun, or to wait (it looks so great!)
The questions are:
1) Does anybody have experiance with buying this gun, and
2) What are your comments about Phantom behaviout in the hunting?

Thanx

This is also a tip to be cerafull When buying Mares Phantom!!!
 
So after 4 months I'm still waithing for the gun, and I don't know what to do, to stop the procedure and buy another gun, or to wait (it looks so great!)

That's odd! I have had a look at the Mares Phantom at the Acquasport shop in Grossetto about a month ago, i.e. it is certainly available in Italy.

Cheers, ulysses
 
Thank you for you reply :friday!
Maybe Mares have to supply shops in Italy first, than in other countries!
They told me that Croatia will be one of the first countries supplied with those guns :blackeye:crutch!
 
We were experiencing some production issues and delayed our anticipated delivery dates. We are now back on track and you should see worldwide delivery begin to roll out very soon. Sorry for the delay, but at the end of the day we are comitted to offering the best products with out issues, and it's better for all if we wait to get it right rather than deliver a faulty product.

Sincerely,

Zak
