Aquagat Speargun Art

Here is something a bit different, a mid-handle inverted roller where the band battery flanks the grip handle. Various colors are available, but the pink version caught my eye. https://www.facebook.com/aquagatspeargunart/

Hard to make out the sub-pulleys, here is another photo.

Grip handle looks like a lolly!

The guy that makes these is genuinely one of the nicest people I’ve ever met. He’s always tinkering and trying new ideas.

And fun, too! I just had a peek he's launching a simple two-band gun, BUT here's the sales blurb:
Yes! We’re going to launch with an ultra simple, basic AF, 2 band traditional open track rail gun.

If it got any simpler we would have to call it “Donald Trump”!!
Let's NOT get into politics but man, do I love when people talk my language, cuss words and all and show they have humor. (Ah, he is Aussie, so that almost explains it, haha)

It's definitely unique and I like the direction of the idea. Would love to see how it shoots.

His stuff is super cool for sure. I’d never seen that gun you posted Pete, interesting setup.

Re: Aquagat Speargun Art

Note the cupped grip on the flat side of the handle to use two hands on the grip.

Re: Aquagat Speargun Art

The photos shown here of the pink and black gun seem to have disappeared! There is now a website https://www.aquagat.com/, but it must be under development as bar the header there seems to be nothing about guns..
