Hello people,
I will embark on a longer sailing journey through different ocean areas ( coastal, open and in between ) soon and I am staring to prepare my equipment for fishing.
Since space limitations ( especially when not on the boat and back packing ) are a big concern I opted to build a modular gun that can be used in a long and short configuration.
I have built it using a Rob Allen Vecta handle, matching aluminium rail barrel and open muzzle for double rubber configuration.
Now the long spear is a 6.5mm - length 115 cm which can be halved ( I did some precision milling and thread cutting ) to allow easy storage in a backpack.
The tube is split into three sections so I can take out the middle one and use the gun with a shorter ( 85 cm ) spear in different scenarios.
Now my big question is: What kind of rubbers ( length - diameter ) should I use?
Two different sets? Maybe with two rubbers for the 115 and one for the shorter one?
Thanks for all tips and suggestions.
Cheers!
