I've got a Sparid 1300 and absolutely love the hell out of it. It's always my fault when a fish gets away from me, not the guns. It put a spear completely through a 21 kg Sampson Fish with just the one stock rubber. Just make sure you rinse the vecta actions out well with fresh water or the safety switch tends to stick a bit, luckily it seems to stick in the 'off' position. So the fish aren't safe.

Must be great to get fish that size.

Pretty easy to dismantle too: http://forums.deeperblue.net/diy-ho...moving-installing-rob-allen-trigger-mech.html
BTW You could try pushing down on the safety while pushing/pulling to ease it over the "teeth" [see above thread for images]. My safety catch was locked in the off position for more than a year, best situation really (missed 2 fish when safety was on, first was first day ever spearing & second was first fish of the new season a year or two ago -- must have fiddled with the safety over the winter & left it on).

Hey Guys! Does some body knows where to get a RA trigger mechanism?

Thanks, Tomy..

Try Florida Freedivers. They list complete handles and cassettes in their catalog. They are the importer to the US, and very easy to deal with.

Yeah I'm with Pastor on this one. I think the gun would be more accurate with a single rubber.

Hteas. Thanks very much for you help.

I seem to recall a story of a container containing a lot of RA gear getting knocked off in Oz a couple of years ago. It's not just surfacing is it?
