Questions & Answers

Chad D : What are the sizes for replacement spear and band for the 115?JOHNNY L : sorry for late answer but I look at my emails once a month or so.I had bands made at local dive shop.John C : I ma sorry but I am not sure, i went and bought the gun and all the equipment but am not physically fit enough to skin dive. Unfortunately I thought it would be similar to Scuba, which I love.
Shopper : I'm keeping the band that comes with the spear gun but I am going to add a lighter second band for shooting in, around or near rock so what mm should it be?MICHAEL S : The real question is, why so many prepositions?
Shopper : Does the spear gun and the spear shaft make up the 85 cm or just the spear gun?JOHNNY L : gun it's self is 55inches long.shaft by it's self is 63inches long.model i have shows as 115cmB C : Cressi guns seem to be measured by the tubular part of the gun only. you need to 20cm ( for the grip and stock) to the gun size to get the actual length of the gun from stock to muzzle.MICHAEL S : The 85 cm is the length of the barrel. For an 85 cm gun the spear will be 120 to 130 cm.
Shopper : Hello, Is the trigger mechanism 100% stainless steel? WHat abt the shaft....I have only read bad experiences with this shat....JOHNNY L : i bent my shaft shooting a monster cuda, it was a far shot though so that might have been the problem. i would buy a spare shaft, which isnt so bad because the shafts are only $30-40 bucks
Shopper : is this gun better than the mares viper? which is better for spearfishing the east coast of Florida?YAN G : They are very similar guns. Both would perform well. Boils down to personal preference.

Serious POWER but hard to load

On one band, this gun is CRAZY powerful. Taken down grouper up to 30" & large cobia with no problems at all. The reel is a nessesity & works well. You CANNOT chest load this unless you have 5' long arms. I made a small pad that fits in my belt & belt load to the cheater fin & then move up to my chest to load the rest of the way. You MUST have a shirt with a chest pad - even then, you'll get bruises. You do NOT need a second band on this gun. The gun tracks well side to side & is perfectly balanced in the water. The shaft is pretty durrable but thin & bends on impact. Not the best gun to use around rocks b/c of the power combined with the thin shaft. I bent mine on one trip & dulled the point. The last trip, while taking a hog snapper, it got stuck so deep in the coral that i had to break the tip just to get it back. Most of this can be avoided if I was more comfotable shooting from 10' or so - I just shoot from 5'. The only real "problem" is that no one carries the spare shafts! In my opinion, if LeisurePro sells the gun they should sell the spare parts. You BADLY need to carry a few spare shafts & bands (although the band is constructed well & will likely last longer than typical bands). All around I'd call this gun the sniper rifle of the seas. I've used american style guns & they do work better for reef/rock hunting in general, but I wouldn;t trade this one in on one. This gun looks AMAZING out of the box & is a true experts gun.

Very nice gun, but cant load it

I bought this gun hoping for something easier to load and use. I am used to the American style with 2 or 3 bands - typically a JBL, I have a Woody Elite and a Magnum and they are great and Im able to load but its a pain. I figured this single band would be easier, but fact is I cant load it at all. Not sure if I simply lack the strength or technique. Im sure once a person gets it down though it will be a great gun
