I have to get a gun to go fishing tomorrow... my dive buddy is showing up about a month earlier than I was expecting, which forces me into buying something fast :blackeye
Fortunately the local shop has these 2 on sale for about the same price (170-180 USD)
Can anyone help me decide?

I would buy the railgun easily, but:
- once safety is engaged, I can not disengage it with my thumb... barehanded... at all. can that be fixed? I could never disengage it with my gloves on.
- the rubbers seem different lengths by 1cm and this forces the wishbone to sit crooked... that seems bad too... can I make them fix that at the shop?
I was going to go for the Carbon, but:
- Isn't the Railgun going to be more accurate?
- I have shorter arms, and the Carbon seems about 5cm longer than the Cayman railgun, so the Cayman seems easier for me to load, especially underwater.
