My GIMANSUB Dentex 100 gun works like a dream….very accurate to say the least…..but as with all open tracks (open muzzle) it does take some time to load….as opposed to the enclosed track.
I’m also looking to add a bit more power/range but don’t want to give up accuracy.
If this gun had an enclosed track….I think it could be used in both Blue water & Reef hunting

Does anyone have any experience in converting an open track gun to a closed track gun….or is this not possible.

Cheers,
Ihab

hello Ihab ,
converting no..cause it might be more difficult than building a new
purpose built enclosed track one.(i think).
instead of trying to convert yr gun that is accurate..with a chance of ,after work, having a piece of S##T if job not perfect..
you better to buy another gun..
also ``blue water and a 100 ``is not perfect matching idea ..
Blue water hunting require a 65.or 67 or 69/70/71/72 ` length= 165 cms or 170 or175/177/180/183...
and some times more !!
