So many questions...
I am still very new to spearfishing with a gun. I have however fished with a sling for almost 13 years. I got a JBL mini carbine to start out with, the quality not being the greatest was a bit of a turn off. I have decided to go big and get a real gun, well a beginners gun at least. With all that in mind here are my questions
1)What is a good quality gun? Most of my diving is usually reef in the Carrib, with the occasional blue water where ever my travels take me.
2)I have read most of the threads and advice posts and there is still some jargon that is most confusing, especially when dealing with different spears, shafts and guns?
Any help would be very much appreciated.
Many thanks
