The Rob Allen Snapper railgun is the latest Rob Allen Speargun to hit the market. The railed barrel is manufactured from aircraft grade aluminium with a wall thickness of 1.45mm and the mechanism is manufactured from glass reinforced nylon and has a solid 316 stainless steel spear. Like the Caranx but more powerful and deadly accurate.
The Snapper 120cm gun is equipped with a 7mm spear and twin 14mm rubbers. Standard also is the Rob Allen bungee cored with 240kg dyneema and a single wrap of 180kg mono.
It’s so accurate, it’s almost unfair!

Vectra 2 Mechanism
The Rob Allen Vecta Mechanism is moulded from PA6 30% GS glass filled Polyamide to handle the power needed to hunt large blue water fish. External shrouds and an internal barrel spigot increase strength at the critical barrel/mechanism interface. Apart from safety considerations, any flex in this area reduces accuracy. Internal webs at several places in the mechanism are designed to spread loading away from high stress areas.
All load bearing pivot pins as well as the spear are manufactured from solid stainless steel. The rubber overgrip is clamped in place by the cheekplates to prevent twist on firing. The spring loaded line release cam returns to position after firing for ease of loading.
