FS: roller kit for riffe euro, riffs euro shaft 140cm

I bought one for my riffe euro but I think it's an overkill for hunting in New England waters. Probably better for guys who dive in better vis for bigger fish.
Installed on my 100x for 3 dives then removed from it.
Metal parts are all stainless steel and little tools needed for installation will be included(small screwdriver, allen wrench for hex screw, and a tiny wrench)
I didn't use a reel so I just used the parts that comes with the kit(these go into the reel mounting holes) for bottom wishbone securing but I recommend just drilling in a line anchor if you use a reel.
Positively buoyant even with 75 Riffe euro(shaft out) is what the manufacturer told me.
My 100x floated with shaft out when it had this kit installed.
This kit is $150 new so I'll do $100 shipped.
I don't think this kit fits an older Riffe euros due to the change in band hole size at the muzzle. Some dude bought one for his older Riffe euro and it didn't fit his. Anyways here are the pics:




Beuchat revolution band for 1050 size that was cut shorter(only the 19.5mm band was modified) for my riffe roller also for sale, $30 shipped, I have no use for it.
It's one 19.5mm band with two 16mm bands joined together.

Riffe euro shaft 140cm(it was the stock shaft for my 100x), mini shark fin, single flopper, never fired, excellent condition. 6.5mm diameter I think, could be 6.75mm but not sure, I can measure the weight though.
$45 + shipping, or open to trade with 120cm or 130cm euro mech shaft.

Paypal as always, gift option preferred. I just sold my gatku and still trying to sell another gun through here and just realized paypal sucks out some mean fees out of transactions...
I didn't take the pic of a loaded gun but if you do a double action setup, think Beuchat Revolution, if you do a single action, it would look like a regular roller gun.
If you're asking because you're curious how the line wraps, here is my attempt lol

You use your Riffe's line anchor and put it on the right side of the muzzle(The kit provides a stainless steel piece with same dimensions to fill up the space where the line anchor originally was)
The shooting line goes as you would with a normal Riffe, from the mech to the muzzle's line guide, around the shaft, pressing it down once(although magtrack is enough..), to the muzzle groove in the wood, and then you proceed making the wraps wether double or triple.
So when you fire it and the shaft's rear end leaves the muzzle, the shooting line is free to unwrap from the right side of the gun.

thanks.
I mainly want to know how it works with a reel. i see that you are using the holes for the reel to attach those things for the bottom band.

also, how much heavier does it make the muzzel?
do you have the weight of the rollers?

never had riffe reel but i guess the line after the final wraps will go to the line anchor on the right side of the gun
and then to the reel.
the weight is 205gram, which is about 7 oz

Sorry. Maybe I wasn't clear enough. Where will the bottom band be pulled to if the reel is installed?

if single action roller, you can run the bottom wishbone dynema around the riffe reel mount or thru the trigger guard.
i tried single action with 20percent pretension first but my shaft didnt have a rest tab so it was too much power when there was a structure behind it. switched to double action band so i could use three different power settings(19mm alone, 19mm stretched by one bottom 16band, 19mm stretched by two bottom 16 bands) later lol

double action if u want to use a reel, youd have to drill a line anchor in front of the reel to serve as a bottom wishbone hook. or if you have the identical stainless inserts for the reel mount holes, you wont have to buy an anchor, just use the pieces included in the kit.
if you have a shaft with rest tab or skilled at shooting around structure and dont have to worry about ruining shaft tips, id say single action 16mm band would be the way to go.

Sounds good. I will try to attach 7oz of weight to my muzzle and see how it is. My gun is only a 75cm. I just want to make sure it will not make it too nose heavy.

sold. sorry man, can't really say no to a person who just sends money first lol
the manufacturer has an ebay store, you might wanna try there but the price is steep($150) considering you can put together an aluminum roller railgun for $220 using aftermarket parts
