Bet with a cleanup and new rubber it would still bring home a feed.
I've mucked around with a few old guns - find the plastic explodes with age and sun baking I guess....
I did a bit of a restore on a big old NZ manufactured speargun - and on the first dive I was on the edge of a big dropoff, pulled the trigger on a fish and the barrel disappeared into the gloom and I was left holding the handle... pretty funny.
I've just about finished a restore on a older ali barrelled gun - cut it right down to about 40-50cm - wee pistol - but about the right size for my 6yr old who is keen as mustard.
Pretty neat being out in big water with a wee guy right on my shoulder - giving him a entry into the peaceful world of kai moana gathering that I've enjoyed for so many years.
