There are 2 versions with open muzzle.

The alluminium version with the full rail, and the carbon version with the round tube

i preferred the allum version as i think the reinforced allum tube would be enough to hold 2x16mm bands

Shane, I've got Open Pro (alu) 120cm with 2x20mm Dunlop bands. They are stretched to 330% when loaded. The tube holds it without flexing! Although recoil is way, way too strong. Unfortunately, those were the only bands I could get at that moment.

A bit more than nothing Mostly, I used only one band with 7mm shaft because of the recoil. My season was from 15.7. till 12.9. and that is not a good time for north Adriatic sea (Istria). The plan for next year is buying 17mm bands and 6.5mm shaft.

Bye!
 
Hi Alex

I would use no more than twin 16mm and a 7 spear on that gun

A lot opf HUGE fish have been caught on Rob Allens and Rabitechs with that setup.

The recoil you will get using more power will be counterproductive and will cause the spear to go slower and be less accurate

Can you upload some more fotos of the gun so other members can see it

Thanks a lot mate

Try the twin 16mm. Get some primeline rubber from totemsub or demka (both the same)

Your gun will shoot really sweet
 
The bands of the gun are very good, I'm talking about the Open, the gun above in the pictures. The Open is with 2x16 very soft bands and 6.5 shaft and the Open Pro with 2x17,5 soft bands with 7mm shaft..

But the shaft needs to be changed...

Bands on Open Pro were great, but they broke after 10 times in water!?!?! The gun wasn't left on sun more than half an hour and I washed it every day after hunting. That's the reason I had to buy those 20's. I can't complain on shaft, why do you think it should be changed?

Bye!
 
I would like better a devoto or a seatec extreme shaft. They are great!!!! I use them in all my spearguns!

How did the bands broke????? They broke near the wishbone????

If I decide to change the shaft, it will be Devoto

The bands did broke near the constrictor knot, and few days before they've become very sticky there.

by the way, an excellent essay on speargun ballistics on-line is "balistica comparata delle armi subacquee". on www.maorisub.it (click on "articoli" in the homepage left side menu).

PS: ciao lidija. amici mi hanno invitato a pescare a marotta (senigallia). sei di quelle parti?
 

Senigallia no ,mi dispiace.Magari. Sono da Croazia.
Non ho mai visitato il sito di maorisub,bello, grazie per l'informazione. Buona fortuna per la pesca.
Saluto,L.

Any can say, it says 2x16mm black(ËÜóôé÷á: 2 ğåñáóôÜ ö16mm black ìå ñáêüñ êùíéêÜ), 29x1.5mm barel , it means that open pro 110 or 120 have?
i think that the rubber is not black, it is yellow latex, my brain mixed
what is the full orginal combination of this gun 110? or 120?
any tested in the water? buyouny(nothr)? or heavy? after fire re-back force?
Really looks great!
