great gun

great gun with plenty of power (when using 3 bands). Spear is very heavy and durable, but comes out of gun really slow with only 1 band. The tip unscrewed after the first three shots. Maybe a little locktite might help. great gun for thick skulled Lingcod!!

Nice Speargun

It was a little slow getting here. And it did not arrive as described. It was a different color and the bands were not yellow they are black. Not a big deal to me on either.

This gun kicks butt!!

This has been the best all around speargun for the Pacific N.W. and beyond. I love the open breach for fast loading, the power is amazing for a gun under four feet. Pretty good quality, nice accuracy and plenty of range for our limited visibility. Great job JBL!!

Hands down, the best features for the NW

Stop whining, I've owned a dozen guns and the NW magnum is the best of all worlds. It's short enough to nail the big ones on wrecks, durable enough for rock reefs, powerful enough for the bigger game, easy enough to use with thick gloves. Rinse it, maintain it and you'll never need to replace it. Great job JBL.

Good beginer's gun.

This is my first gun. I've never shot before. I took it to the pool and practiced with a target. I never missed at the max range. The gun is easy enough to load, maneuver and aim, but I will be adding some buoyancy to the muzzle end to make full extension less fatiguing.

Got speargun on time - everything went w

By Larry

Everything is as I expected

The spear gun design that started it all, the JBL Magnum series of guns is probably responsible for more speared fish than all other spear guns combined. It's no wonder; as this durable and accurate workhorse features a 1 1/4" (3.2 cm) drawn alloy barrel, corrosion resistant hardened stainless steel trigger, shaft and point. The JBL728S shaft is made from 17-4 spring stainless for durability and long life, shaft is 24" (61 cm) in length with a 5/16" diameter, and is hand-tuned for alignment then heat-treated for maximum hardness to reduce flex and provide optimum energy transfer. Handles are constructed of two-piece cast aluminum providing strength and ease of maintenance. Guns overall length is 36" (91.5 cm).

The Magnum 38 Special Northwest features three 9/16" x 16" (14.3mm x 406mm) Hi-Mod JBL216 bands with 302 stainless wire wishbones. JBL's unique latex formulation and dip manufacturing process delivers radical modulus strength. The power curve increases as bands are stretched for optimum performance. Special anti-oxidants help protect against harmful U.V. rays, prolonging sling life. Gun has a one hand safety and trigger operation.

Let's get right to the point, these tips are designed to punch through even the toughest fish, penetrating thick skin and hard bone. Constructed of hardened 17-4 stainless with a razor-sharp finish they'll make short work of just about any game fish. Low-profile, stainless wings are quickly deployed and angled to grab tight and hold on. Sliding wing retainer allows for easy removal of fish. Our patented (#4685239) rotating design allows for 360°-degree spin, providing greater holding power and minimizing the chance of your point unthreading from the shaft because of a fish "rolling" in battle. 2-5/8-inch wing span designed to perform even after impact on rock and reef, the JBL843 is a durable workhorse. Each point is designed for low maintenance, dependability and most important results.

Gun is equipped with the JBL515 Shock Line. Sometimes we miss or we shoot a large fish and the recoil can pull the gun out of your grip, whichever the shock line will keep you in control. Guns range is 14' (4.27 meters). Tried and trusted this is one hunting buddy you'll be glad to share a secret spot with. These guns are most suitable for spear fishing among reefs and rocks where heavy penetration is needed but range is not critical. Gun is totally made in the USA.
