Hello, thought you might be interesrted in this.

There is a new gun coming out in France soon.
It seems to be the first real innovation since the
invention of the speargun.

You can see the prototype on:
Seamaxx easy loading speargun - underwater spearfishing

It allows you to arm more easily, fire at a
greater distance, with more precision and maximum
comfort and security and as well you can modulate
your firing power. It is the only one in the world to do this.

It is especially interesting for women who are
often smaller and have less muscle than men.

I would like you have your opinions on this.



Only underwater fishing is selective.
(Even anglers catch fish that are too small).

Spearfishing is the most sustainable fishing that
exists!
 
The gun look amazing! I am sure we have seen this pic before?
So how far away are you from a working model?
 
The one you can see is a working model. It seerved to validate all the functions.
It is being streamlined and in the next few months it should be industrialised.
If you want to be informed, register on the contact area of the site.
Best regads,
 
Thanks Mark, perhaps you can let us all know how the gun progresses.
 
The roller gun was invented many years ago, but never took on because too complex and even harder to load than a conventional gun, and you couldn't do it in the water without getting a mess in the string; you had to load one side, turn it over then the other. By the way Seamaxx is patented all over the world and it could not be if it was the same as the roller gun. Seamaxx is the only gun with easy loading, in or out of water. It is the only one where you can very easily modulate (even after loading) the power of your loading charge and that you can unload easily and in total security at the end of your dive. All these details are explained on the site. If you have any other questions, please don't hesitate.
Regards to all.
 
Looks like a big step forward in innovation :)
Congrats and best wishes for success.
 
Pretty wild! I'd think that small boys would also find a use for this kind of mechanical advantage. I think you definitely have your challenges ahead of you - we spearfishers are a demanding bunch :D. First you need to make it work. Second you need to make it safe. Third you need to make it accurate. Fourth you need to make it durable.

This is not a toy for small boys, but for spearos that want to perfect their art. It works. It is the safest gun ever invented. It offers the most accurate use a gun has ever offered. The inventor has spent years, with at every moment scientific evaluation and examination, making it what it is. Soon you will be able to test it for yourself!
 
interesting, look forward to seeing actual pictures of the unit, website doent have any yet.

what will the average pricing be and what lenths will you cover.

regards

You can see an animation of the functioning if you click on the image at the top right. This represents the first prototype.
As the second prototype is in developpement the price is not yet determinable. What would you give as a reasonable price?
The length is ± 120cm to the end of the arrow. This has been calculated as being an average all functional gun, considering that it can be up to 30% more powerful than an equivalent gun and on which the power can be modulated down, it is equivalent to several guns between 90cm and 145cm. In other words you have several guns in one. This too is a major innovation. No other gun offers this.

I'm afraid SeaMarc .... but i know a gun that do the same things ( even better, at least for me !!!! )
I developed it at least 4 years ago: my roller called "IDDU".
It works like a roller but with a great increase in power and a great simplicity in chargement due to a system integrated in the gun that i ideated.

The solution is different that seamaxx but the innovation is tha same. In addition i used a different sistem of chargement.

This is the concept of IDDU:

Here you can see the plans of IDDU ( in italian ):

http://www.stefano-soriano.it/arbaffertus/IDDU/i_segreti_di_iddu.htm

This is a video in wich i show how IDDU works ( dont pay attention to the rubbers because was this was a first prototype of IDDU):

http://www.stefano-soriano.it/arbaffertus/video_pages/iddu_video.htm

Here the function in water and land of another models that works with the same method of IDDU:

New Page 1

Just in the recent time i'm developed a new version: IDDU II and im testing it: the result are impressive in comparison with traditional spearguns and traditional rollerguns: from 0 to 4 meters in 0,155 seconds with 8 mm spear in my first test.

Here you can see the presentation: the page is in italian but the video (look the black box) and the pictures are explicative:

Congratulations, you have an interesting concept there.... but can you do all that in less than 8 seconds underwater without scaring all fish for more then hundreds of meters away? It seems that Seamaxx is much more perfectionned. Seamaxx is patented all over the world.

First of all very thanks for the congratulations.

I use to load the speargun over sea surface while breathing and relaxing before the immersion. Are you suggesting a new thecnique of total underwater hunting including the moment of speargun load ?

In relation of fish scaring i remember you that the fishs dont have ears like humans and they have a different sensorial system based on "lateral line" wich is stimulated by meccanics and not by sounds.

As you probably know, the sounds that the humans listen, works in fishs stimulating their curiosity: i ( and a lot of spearman that i konw) often use to produce some little sounds in immersion just to attract the fish.

In paradox, the sounds that you listen while load the gun, have more probability to attract the fishs in hundreds of meter, than scare their.

I load my sperguns in about 10 seconds ( the new version of my speargun have the handle grip integrated in the gun) and even with old version in wich the handle grip was separated from the guns, the entire load-time is about 15-20 seconds ( as you can see in the video).

In any case, to eliminate the noise of sounds loading (for the one whom it doesn't like), is required a simple change to the system of loading.

PS: Even my system is patent pending sice 10 may 2006 ;-)

Be careful because a man named Marc Antoine Berry patented the roller gun in 2003!

SeaMark, how many times should you "pump" with lever for biggest gun to have it full power?

Be careful because another man patented the roller gun in 30 april 2001 :blackeye:blackeye




I know yet the Marc Antoine Berry Patent !!
