Speargun from Bucanero, 96 centimeters long, suitable for visibility in the sea up to 10 meters and depth of 5 to 6 meters. Its medium length makes it ideal for planning and ambushing and it can also sneak under large rocks. It is a rubber-powered speargun, as rubber bands are used as the means of propelling the spear.

As I received it, I haven't changed anything. 115cm spear, 18mm threaded rubber. It is powerful in the second (the first one is weak). It shoots exactly where you aim. Accurate
The gun is good for its price, but I can't say I was thrilled. It came with a 6.25mm spear shaft, 1.15cm shark fins, and an 18mm rubber band tied with a string knot, instead of a 6.25mm spear shaft with notches and a 17.5mm rubber band as many stores and the manufacturer's website still claim, which hasn't been updated in years. The closed head with the spear shaft with shark fins is essentially useless, and I use it with the open head, which ended up suiting me better. Also, the rubber band seemed average to me, so I quickly replaced it with one from another company. From the first dive, the barrel took in water. The problem was solved by removing and reattaching the head, which must have had some manufacturing defect as it was excessively tight, making it difficult for me to take it off and put it back on, with the risk of damaging it, unlike the handle, which was fine. The grip of the handle doesn't fit well, causing it to move when held (perhaps it would have been better if it was fixed and didn't come off). Overall, the handle is comfortable and the muzzle is quite good. The gun, however, is quite accurate, and with the reel at the initial price, it is a very fair proposition compared to the competition. For something more, get the Bucanero 2, which has a superior barrel shaped like a spear.
