Re: OctoSub Spearguns

There is a video of the OctoSub carbon gun and some text "These are basically 4.2kg fully composite moulded stocks. Any infills are with high density pvc foam. Most of our guns are not designed with fish smaller than 30kg in mind, so it is understandable that those more used to shooting small fish would want “more curves”. We are looking mostly at more displacement & ballast to tame recoil from 3/8 spears & multiple rubbers."

Trying to work out how to do the video transfer. The first photo is of a 4.2kg blank. The weight is entirely epoxy & composites, no lead or other ballast. It is solid through the rear section. Just needs some pink bands (my observation)!

Re: OctoSub Spearguns

Seems that the OctoSub company is flat out meeting demand for their heavy duty spearguns as they deliver performance-wise in securing fish.
