Thunderball Technisub jaguar spearguns

Hi guys
Today recaived a parcel from Italy,so I decided to share its contents with you.
This just made my day! :)
All started 3 weeks ago,when Mantis posted his video"Countdown to SPECTRE"
and was proudly holding his Jaguar speargun. Was a bit jealous(in good way offcourse)
Started my hunting,found one on ebay,unfortunately non working(wall hanger)
But then happy accident happened and I met great guy from Italy,he was a speargun fishing champion in 70s, now he's marine biologist and huge speargun collector.
So I managed to buy from him 2 beautiful Jaguar spearguns,fully restored with all new genuine
o-rings and pistons+plus extra set of Pistons and o-rings for future,so they can last another 50 years :)
I'm so happy,it's like a miracle,because today its impossible to find any parts for these things anywhere! All are wall hangers
So now hunting can begin..... :)) can't wait my holidays
Does anyone of you have try these?
Just wanted to add-remember if you want something a lot-be patient,and sooner or later it will come to you!
Cheers

    What a fantastic beach. I used to go night fishing with my dad and friends at a similar beach off the River Tamar opposite the Navy base. Great to cook what you caught on a campfire, but never really liked the taste of shopping trolley.

    But sometimes I wonder why we even need to go abroad when we have stunning scenery on our doorstep. Sorry, that last bit was for the Brits :))

    Enjoy them, and are you bringing one with you while on holiday somewhere to do a reenactment?
    Cheers,

    Would be difficult to reenact,unless I nail someone to the tree :))
    No basically just want to enjoy them,would be nice to catch something off course.
    Don't promise a video(must get Go Pro) but definitely pics.
    That's for future
    And hopefully that British summer will arrive sometime :))
