Re: Hatch Custom Spearguns "Yacht Gun"

I like that it moves the center of mass of your gun up, which will reduce the moment causing your muzzle to jump, but I think the band sections added on the top side aren't worth it. It might be more comfortable to load, but you're going to dirty up your force profile and thus your acceleration. Rather than smooth linear acceleration, you'll end up with greater jerk forces (derivative of acceleration).

Also, it ruins the clean sight line. I'm sure you have your reasons, and I'd be interested to hear them, but aside from making it more comfortable to load, adding those bands makes it worse.

Edit: Guess I didn't reply straight to you, SpearoTastic. Haven't done much on this forum, haven't got the hang of it.
