AIRBALETE New
A revolutionary pneumatic speargun that combines the best traits of power in air guns to the maneuverability and aim advantages of band guns.

BARREL/PISTON CHAMBER:
The barrel of the gun is produced using Hydroforming technology which allowed us to manipulate the shape to achieve the best maneuverability for an air gun. The internal piston barrel diameter is 11mm which consents easier loading at higher pressure compared to most standard 13mm air guns. In addition thinner faster shaft diameters between 6-7mm are employed.

HANDLE:
An innovative handle design resembles those of modern band guns. As with band guns, the handle alignment positions the hand directly in line with the spear shaft contained in the inner chamber, opposed to below the barrel as with all the current pneumatic speargun models. This realization allows a more natural aim and better absorption of recoil similar to the characteristics of modern band guns. The handle can be easily removed thanks to a generous sized stainless steel locking pin that fixes it to the rest of the gun. Once removed there is access to the dump valve of the gun which is otherwise sealed dry during regular use. In addition, the handle grip itself can be substituted for an ergonomic grip available in RIGHT or LEFTIE versions.

MECHANISM:
The trigger mechanism is designed to offer a sensitive trigger independent of the amount of air pressure preloaded in the barrel.It therefore remains neutral and unaffected offering unaltered trigger sensitivity regardless of the power. This was the result of a push rod lever design that exponentially reduces the load between the trigger and the trigger mechanism. The tooth used to engage the shaft, known as the trigger sear, is produced with a special stainless steel that has a very high resistance to wear and tear and is treated with a special coating that reduces friction. Another innovation in the field of air-guns is the side pivoting line release that keeps the shooting line tucked to the side of the gun.

MUZZLE:
The new muzzle integrates a power reducer which can be easily employed while fishing. The side water ports in the front of the gun (larger than standard ports to increase the water escape from the piston chamber) can be shut by simply turning the muzzle cover. By doing this the speed of the shaft is reduced by 15%.

PISTON:
The piston is furnished with two O-rings produced with a unique material that reduces friction against the piston chamber during the stroke. Just thanks to the employment of these O-rings a 15% increase in shaft velocity is achieved as well as easier loading effort.

Comments about Omersub Omer Airbalete Pneumatic Speargun:

This pneumatic is hardly a pneumatic, it's better than a pneumatic and has more range than a band gun. At first I was very hesitant about buying it. What I like about it are the comfort of the grip, it feels like a band gun, how easy it is to aim and how light it is in the water. There is virtually no recoil at all considering the power. The shaft shoots out very fast compared to a band gun. The only downside I see is the slide ring that attaches to the shooting line has small holes. I put a loop of stainless cable through it and then connected it to my shooting line and this took care of the problem.
