Re: Seal Polispats inverted Roller 110cm ambidextrous

Hi there, just found this thread. I think the price is a little on the high side, but if you’re willing to negotiate, and ship to Australia, please let me know.

Re: Inverted roller

Completely agree with all of this, i am now using this gun, and would never have anything other than a set of pulleys.
