I'll never forget the first time I fired my JBL woody magnum out of the water.:doh

You really don't realize the kick they give out of the water. And you often times forget that that shaft is on a shockcord ready to spring right back at you when you are out of the water. Just ask my shin bone about that incident.:banghead I had just got my first speargun home and was admiring its great qualities and I just had to shoot it. Set up in the front yard and it was a "Hey ya'll, watch this" type ofmoment. Everything went great until that damn thing came flying back at me and I could not get out of the way fast enough. Let's just say, I don't fire my spearguns out of the water anymore.

We warn every new speargun buyer about the dangers of firing the guns out of water.:nonono

He's lucky it wasn't a riffe - it might have killed him

man, I think almost everyone who has a speargun has had a similar experience. I remember when I got my first gun, Clay-doh's smaller JBL, I got home and was curious so I let er rip in my backyard. I did that exactly ONE time!:banghead For anyone thinking of getting into the sport, such things do not come highly recommended!

Holy cow! That had to hurt, what a goofball, but the bad thing is it can happen to anyone. I shot my pole spear through the wall and almost hit one of the cats in the process:banghead Merry Christmas all!
