I'd pass, looks questionable.


70cm, open muzzle aluminum railgun from Rob Allen or Mako is what you're looking for.  Check the classifieds at spearboard for used gear.

Excellent gun for perch.but anything bigger you have to get really close.if your into the jbl brand I'd get the custom 31inch it has two bands and cost a bit more 150 I think
My biggest worry is that my wife(when I'm dead)will sell my fishing gear for what I said I paid for it

You may want more power than this has to offer.

The smaller guns with small bands are difficult to load.

I'd rather use a polespear :smt004

Let's go get some fish.

Too small for sure.  I use a 36" AB Biller as my "all purpose" gun.  It's old school and kinda cumbersome, but it has enough power to spear 30 pound halibut, and it works great for lings, perch, and various rockfish.  In my experience it's best to save up, research, and get something you will really use and enjoy.
