Monoroller Question

[Mr. X]

I now have few roller questions of my own but thought I should start a new thread to ask them: https://forums.deeperblue.com/threa...dation-for-uk-waters-fish.115883/#post-988338

Kodama. This matter interested me enough to look for solution. Apparently Ivan Palumbo hs a beautiful fix o the problem, look here:

it is in line with what I thought, look at the drawing made by Ivan

How is this a solution the shaft is still in the same place. the cutout is to make loading easier when the bridle is tension across the 2 rollers

So did you get the gun?

I am not exactly sure, all I know is what I can see from Ivan’s scetches. My guess is that at the release, rear end of shaft will be first pulled down, because there is no more track to hold it, and then it will compensated by the usual pullup by the wishbone, which is what makes rollers to shoot low in first place. Not very scientific, but it worked for Ivan. I would prefer the change to the release altogether. Sort of stopping the wishbone without upward movement. Or change to the sharkfin shape, so it less affected by the release.

Might as well just make yourself a loading assist with a longer bridle and use that to power the shaft. That way the shaft will be released a bit earlier without any downforce.

And all i can say is that those cutouts are present in commercial guns but just for easier reloading.

So did you get the gun or not? And if yes any review?
