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).

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