JBL Spearguns Carbine Speargun for Spearfishing, Mini Speargun for Freediving, Scuba Diving, Fishing, Diving, Aluminum Barrel, Stainless Steel Shaft

While slightly difficult to pull band back while in water, you’re supposed to load on land then enter the water!! This mini speargun packs a punch considering the size!!! I highly recommend this product for HOBBY spearfishing the reef!!! However you shouldn’t use this item for large game fish. Fortunately this company has a wide selection of products. Just like regular fishing you must rig for target species. Anyways 5 stars great product great value

I love this gun! It's my first one and I did a ton of research. I'm 5'4 and it is the perfect length. Super lightweight and moves easily through the water. For the price, it is fantastic. Packs a punch! I definitely recommend a chest pad for loading as the double bands are very tight. I went on a last minute trip and didn't buy a pad, but I cut out a $.98 flip flop and clipped it to my belt. Works like a charm! Highly recommend this gun.

I bought this to spear lionfish as I dive, and wanted something I could hang out of the way on my BC. The gun is very nice and its length is perfect. But the spear tip it comes with is too blunt for lionfish (which I knew in advance) and I suspect for many other small fish. I tried the spear on some lionfish and it literally bounced off of several of them because the tip is too blunt. I bought a threaded shaft and added a three-pronger tip and now it works great. (The shaft on this model is NOT threaded so you either need to buy a different shaft or buy a threading die and thread the shaft yourself.) Wish JBL had thought of all this!The rubber band is very strong, and a little too powerful for such a small gun and smaller fish. It takes two strong hands to load it. Wish they had put a slightly longer one on it and I may make that mod soon.You're going to want to buy a coil lanyard so the string doesn't float around and get tangled in your equipment. I picked up a rubber chair tip at the hardware to cover the three-pronger tip (which I added) while diving. I also bought a Maxpedition UFSB 'universal flashlight sheath (holster) which makes a GREAT holster for the JBL mini (the holster is also sold on Amazon, is very heavy duty and has several adjustments you can make to fit the speargun into it). I hook the sheath/holster to a ring on the side of my BC. Allows me to have the gun with me but out of the way, and keeps my hands free.All of which is to say, "great gun" but plan on spending some additional money to make mods.

Bought these for my dad who is planning to retire and fish away his golden years, lol. The quality of this is awesome and though I don't know anything about fishing, from the envious eyes of the other fishermen I can tell that he has something good. he hasn't complained yet even though I'm not sure if he's caught anything yet.

The spear doesn't look stainless for sure. also the spear is smaller diameter than the back of the spear that is released by the gun. It looks lie it can get caught on its way out of the guide. Also the plastic is some kind of cheap plastic it looks very brittle and does hurts when you put it against your chest to cock it.Everything over all was just a junky design it was so obvious i just sent it back without even trying it.

Shipped in a timely amount of time, product was as described in the description. It was exactly what I was looking for

Very hard to load and it hurts
