Tomba - All in One barrel sealing

Thread Status: Hello , There was no answer in this thread for more than 60 days.
It can take a long time to get an up-to-date response or contact with relevant users.
I use two different methods - I can post a pic later today...

OK, I would like to see your methods. Soon I am going to test performance of different configurations, normal shaft, free shaft ...
 
I did not want to drill a hole in the 6.5mm spear so I had it welded to act as a stop for the slider.

No noticeable difference in power or accuracy but the weld spear really toggles the fish.
Most fish I shoot with the Tomba system, the spear goes right through the fish.

I would maybe try to use slider like on the link. I suppose it would be even better, more hydrodynamic, about the same weight as yours.

I like that the nylon with a slider can rotate around the shaft.

You have the first Tomba version design for free shaft with stainless steel bushing. It would last very long time but is it maybe too much noisy? The latest TombaF has no stainless steel bushing.

How much the shaft tip protrude from the muzzle tip? Seems to be more than 25 cm.

Congratulations Tromic, you have continued to improve on an already great component! have you made any for the Omer Airbalete?

Of course. Don has the first version of Tomba for Airbalete. The latest has lighter cone ring and slider so could be used on more bars, more than 27 (11 mm barrel).
