Re: The DeeperBlue.net Gun Building Extravaganza - Gun Options 3 - Rail & Spear Diame

I am very surprised how the voting has gone right from the start! I would never have guessed, for one second, the gun would be a single band Euro & now we have the possibility of an enclosed track 90cm Euro powered by one band!
Although surprised, not disheartened, because that would be just about perfect for my style of hunting.
However, that configuration will make this gun a true custom creation, not to mention, a few headaches for the GITS!
Did we ever tell you about GITS? - Well GITS is a simple abbreviation for the anonymous gun builder based around an anagram

well you might receive a few puzzled looks from the GITS once you tell him the gun he is building is a 90cm euro with enclosed track and single band.. not the sort he is used to im sure

Just tell him he has to build an outstanding, unique, genial, marvellous piece of an artwork 90cm euro with enclosed track and single band.

Re: The DeeperBlue.net Gun Building Extravaganza - Gun Options 3 - Rail & Spear Diame

Its got to be a mid handle, totally different to what i am used to, but i imagine it would be perfect for UK diving. Swing the beauty round nice and quick and smash those bass right in the face.

Excuse my ignorance, but will this gun definitely have an open muzzle or will we have the option of a closed muzzle if it turns out be an open track or rail gun? as if it will definitely be an open muzzle i am going to vote for enclosed track.

Cheers Ian

Re: The DeeperBlue.net Gun Building Extravaganza - Gun Options 3 - Rail & Spear Diame

You will have to wait for a future poll to find that out but if the theme continues - probably at the front!

Re: The DeeperBlue.net Gun Building Extravaganza - Gun Options 3 - Rail & Spear Diame

this is turning into my dream gun! I can't see that one happening, I'm as amazed as Foxy to see how the voting has turned out so far. I was convinced it would have been a hybrid or a Tuna gun but never ever the possibility of an enclosed track Euro. Well the voting isn't over yet, lets see how it pans out but it looks like the GITS has a few problems on his hands.

All jokes aside mate, I think the gun has to - at least - have the handle close to the rear. That was decided during the first poll when the Euro design won the vote.

Oh I don't know, none of the original options had handle position options I think it might be fair to put that up for vote. I wouldn't expect the mid to win by any shot

Re: The DeeperBlue.net Gun Building Extravaganza - Gun Options 3 - Rail & Spear Diame

Not to keep towing the Riffe Co. line (they're just what I'm familiar with) They offer euro shafts with mini shark fins. Of course, they're on this side of the world.

RIFFE INTERNATIONAL / Accessories - Page 1

My 75cm reef gun is somewhere between a mid, and a rear handle, it swings very nicely.

I'm really interested in the reversed trigger idea - what would that do to trigger position?

Re: The DeeperBlue.net Gun Building Extravaganza - Gun Options 3 - Rail & Spear Diame

Well whoever it is as long as they spell my name right when they put it on my new gun then all will be well.
Well can’t blame a bloke for thinking positively can you.
