	Articles & Reviews - The Band Speargun
		In spearguns a compromise of a medium sensitive trigger mechanism is okay because the stability of the weapon in the water allows an efficient traction on the trigger for a precise shot.
		Therefore the development of a new speargun must keep all these factors into consideration, the materials used, the reliability of the trigger mechanism, and the balance between the stock shaft and bands equipped on the gun.
		Lastly, understanding the particulars of a speargun and its workings is important but we should never forget that the best thing is going diving as often as possible and there’s no substitute to learn how to shoot a fish.

	Choosing the Appropriate Speargun
		A spearo looking to aquire a band-powered speargun is faced with a big decision: which model is best for his or her favorite type of hunting.
		The speargun handle may be placed at the rear of the speargun or towards the middle of the gun.
		Ideally, the float line system should break away from the speargun after the fish is shot, allowing the diver to hold onto the speargun, and allowing the fish to pull the float, unencumbered by the mass of the gun.

	Speargun Band
		Making your own speargun bands can be a minor challenge the first time or two but with the tools listed here and a little practice, it will become much easier.
		If you intend to use bands that are heavier or shorter than your gun was designed for, the increased band tension could result in trigger loads that are greater than the gun can safely withstand.
		Stretching the tubing to slide the retainer ring over the first end on the wishbone is easier because when you are working on the second end, you will be pulling against the tension of a loop of tubing rather than only pulling against the tension of one end.

	AQUATECH Speargun
		Pneumatic spearguns produce noise because of the impact of the piston hitting the plug bushing in the end of the barrel.
		This noise is not present in hydropneumatic guns as they have no piston, and hence they can be fired even without inserted spear - there is no fast moving piston to damage the gun.
		Also each line wrap is longer than that on a comparable traditional pneumatic speargun, so you get more line with Aquatech speargun than with traditional guns of the same barrel length.
