Wong hard to load

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.
Speaking of Wongs, yesterday I took this 50 popund white sea bass with my 55" regular hybrid with 9/32" shaft, three 9/16" bands, and Mori 9/32" slip tip (which can be seen on the side of the fish's head).

The 65 and 67 pound fish were taken by my friends with Wong Magnum Hybrid guns.

hellow bill go to the section homemade guns then look for stergios guns and look what I can do with the exotic LEXAN . the 65 inches long operate with minimum 4 rubbers 5/8 by 32 inches long the maximum capability of the gun when i tested was with 7 rubbers shooting straight at 31 feet STRAIGHT in my pool it .weight 16 pound dry . but in the water almost nothing the trigger mechanism has safe operation 950 pounds SO WHAT KIND OF FISH YOU CAN HAVE WITH THIS ? dont become marketing victim......
 
dont become marketing victim......

Good luck to you selling your guns, but I hardly feel like a marketing victim. I feel like I'm using quality guns produced and backed by a quality person under the best warranty in the business.

For instance, when I left my gun hanging over the side of the boat and put the bands through the props, tearing off the muzzle and destroying the trigger mechanism when the shaft was torn out of it, it was all covered by warranty.

How do you handle it when someone does that to a gun you sold?

You have every right to push your product, but to call everyone who buys other brands a victim of marketing only makes you look petty. I never buy from people who go out of the way to knock the products of their competitors.
 
A Wong marketing victim? Does it ever exist? I've owned a few custom guns, Wong included. Sorry but I don't feel like I'm a sort of a marketing victim. A friend of mine got a Wong, Alexander and a Merlo and he doesn't feel like a marketing victim either. Indeed as Bill said, you have the right to push your products but knocking down other competitors' products who's proven their worth is way out of hand.

Cheers/Safe diving,
