Low Profile Muzzle

The Open Rob Allen muzzle is a perfect example of efficient effective engineering. Taking the muzzle design a step further from the Sparid by opening up the site window Rob Allen has created one of the most loved muzzles on the market, fast and easy to aim. By looking closely at the key requirements for accurate shooting, ease of reloading and ease of maintenance Rob Allen worked to reduce the overall size and weight and minimize the amount of material around the spear to ensure easy target acquisition and reliable consistent aiming. The ability to replace the factory powerbands without any tools has allowed divers to keep diving for longer. With 2 high-quality powerbands for any fish any time, you’ve got the power you need.

Integrated Rail Alloy Barrel:

Rob Allen pioneered the use of an integrated aluminium rail barrel into his guns decades ago to help support the shaft and increase barrel strength. This allowed for a lightweight gun with much greater power while still remaining laser-accurate. This barrel design continues on today using the highest aerospace-grade Alloys to create a reliable lightweight and efficient barrel as the backbone of your speargun.

The Rob Allen Vecta 2 handle and mechanism:

The Handle and mechanism of your speargun are vital. The wrong shape and angle will result in difficult aiming and inconsistent accuracy due to recall. Rob Allen works endlessly on small minute details on his Vecta series of handles to make them an easy, accurate and reliable system for hunting fish.

The latest Vecta 2 handle offers:

Active Stainless Steel line release working off the sear, this illuminates any issues with shooting line tension and shaft load. This result in a more consistent release and trigger pull. Ask any target shooter and repetitive consistency is the key to accuracy. Large rounded spear through to allow a wide range of shafts and shooting lines to be used with minimal wear. 6mm-8mm shafts are no problem. Ergonomic handle with soft-touch over mould designed to direct and reduce recall and muzzle lift and give a comfortable secure and consistent grip with a natural and easy reach to the trigger. It’s all about maximising energy to the spear and accuracy. Solid anchor with swivel shark clip. A solid and reliable attachment point for your float line. When you get the shot on that fish of a lifetime you don’t want to worry about if your gun will come back. Low profile loading butt to make loading your gun a cinch in even the roughest conditions.

2x 16mm RA Blue Powerband:

What better than one great band on your gun? 2! Simple when one band just doesn’t cut it we add a 2nd to make sure. The engine for your speargun. The key to a consistent and powerful speargun is the powerband. Rob Allen has spent countless hours working on the band lengths and latex composition of his signature Blue over Amber powerbands to ensure minimal energy drop over time and consistent band stretch and energy levels. This combines to give you a reliable power output and aiming point. Combined with lightweight and streamlined Dyneema bridles these bands are magic. By tuning the band length to the sweet spot for the rubber rob can perfect the band and power for each length speargun.

Rob Allen 7.5mm Spring Steel Spear:

It’s no secret Rob Allen makes the straightest toughest spears around. The spear design is classic Rob Allen and has again become a reference point for spears the world over, many times copied but never bettered. The 7.5mm diameter stiffens the spear and gives more mass, this allows us to increase the power load and increase penetration. Every Rob Allen shaft is straightened and tested by hand to ensure the straightest most accurate spear you’ll ever use. HD spring stainless steel pin and thick heavy-duty stainless steel barb resists sheering even on the biggest fish and are all tuned to engage and lock on the penetration of the fish. It’s the small things that matter, the slightest bend or out of line spear or barb has a huge impact on accuracy.

Features and Specs:

• Heat-treated Spring Steel Hardened to 2100mpa resisting bending and breaking.
• Machine ground tri-cut tip for busting through scale and bone
• Heavy-duty zinc electroplated outer coating to resist corrosion and glare
• 2 loading notches that are smooth and rounded to fit Dyneema bridle perfectly
• Drilled and smoothed shooting line anchor point

HDPE gun bungee with swivel clip and 400lb reinforced monofilament rigging:

The gun bungee and swivel clip keep the shooting line at the perfect tension and allow for some give in the system during the shot and fight. The swivel clip helps when removing fish from the spear and allows for a fast changeover in the event of a damaged or jammed spear. HD 400lb mono has excellent abrasion resistance and will handle a huge amount of abuse over rocks and coral.

Tool Free Maintenance and Service:

The coastlines of South Africa and Australia are remote harsh environments, and lock all tools equipment should be cleaned and maintained. Rob Allen spends more time than most in the middle of nowhere hunting elusive species with very limited equipment. Rob Allen's focus from the beginning was to be able to clean and replace spears, powerbands and shooting lines with minimal tools. As a result, a simple wash down in freshwater, band, spear and shooting line replaced by hand when necessary is all that’s needed. Simply take a couple of spare rigged spears and some pre-made looped powerbands and you are good for your next week-long spearfishing adventure.
