Building custom Euro gun...

[Man-O-War]

I got this piece of carbon fiber pipe stock with integrated rail, and I want to use it a base for the Euro gun. I know I need handle, and muzzle....but what else? Barrel plugs? How do I screw handle/muzzle into the CF? Does Rob Allen or Rabitech sell handles separately? Thanks in advance

Don't know exactly what you're looking for, but hammerheadmuzzles.com sells handle/trigger mechs, barrel plugs, muzzles, and shafts. Check out their site. Some pretty cool stuff.

Im pretty sure Fl Freedivers sells parts for RA's

rob allen sells everything seperate. mike will sell you the plugs as well. they are difficult to install and depends on the inner diameter of the barrel.

might want to seal the barrel plugs with some silicone or caulking also...talk to mike!

What's the inside and outside diameter of the tube tube? All euro brands sell handles, mussles and plugs. Prices for handles ranges from 30 to 100$. Mussles are less than 8$.

If you are deciding to power up the gun or make it a beefy euro, I would fit the inside of the tube with a close fitting pvc pipe and fill it with some high density foam, to add some mass. Anyways keep us updated with info and pics

If I were you, I'd see if I can use it to build a hybrid. If you are interested in euro-gun type handle, you can make the hybrid rear handled.

A hybrid gives you more options for mounting reels, loading tabs, adding/removing lead, etc.

You want to be super careful screwing anything onto carbon fiber. When a carbon piece fails, it shatters spectacularly, and you don't want the collapsed muzzle comes flying at you.

Pipe is CF, 150cm. I'll measure ID and post. It is a real speargun barrel, with integrated rail. I was thinking about making a hybrid, not sure. I have a Wong Hybrid Ti, and its a nice gun and all, I just like Euro guns better I think (price/performance). I want to make 150cm Carbon Euro gun for under $300, and use Hammerhead trigger ($65), HH muzzle ($45), red bands with dyneema, Sporasub reel and Rob Allen universal Euro 170cm shaft.

I know, my Supra broke CF driveshaft last year at the track and it just disintegrated and flaked out into million pieces :rolleyes:

i've been trying to find a cf barrel with the integrated track at a reasonable price for some time now. who make it and where did you get it?
