Re: Early Riffe Speargun

I came across one like it several years ago. I put new bands on it and used it for a season. I never could seem to be very accurate with it. Recoil caused the gun to rise and the shaft would be deflected low. I had been shooting a Biller 48 with pretty good success, but didn't get enough penetration on snapper unless real close. The Riffe definitely had the power and good penetration just didn't connect very often. I got a couple Mako guns and love them. Best of both worlds. I hung the Riffe up over the fireplace.
