Hi there, I wondering if it's really easy to load the spear gun with it, especially if you want to load it at the last position on the arrow. Is doable ?
You have however given me another idea after looking at this - making a clamp like system where you use your base plate without the screws and use shot cord in loops to go over the camera housing on the left and right. This would allow easy attachment and also allow easy removal eg for filming mates without pointing a gun at them - LOL mine always complained for some reason.....
Awesome! Glad to hear it doesn't want to tip and recoil is not an issue. In my case The Riffe does fire up when I load her up!(I do love it but! LOL) Biggest thing to be keeping an eye on is that you have good quality Stainless steel (Those fittings didn't look like ali) and it is not in direct contact with the ali barrel Eg ali and steel give you redox reaction, paint the threads and cut barrel edges or use duralac.
Then seal her up with no acid content silicon eg roofing gutter silicon. (should not smell like vinegar if you are not sure!)Can't wait to see the footage then. What type of camera and housing you using BTW? Cheers and have fun - I love making mods to play with!!
Hey Alek, my 2c worth of fails : The hight of the mount above the gun might give you balance problems aka weight of camera+housing with leverage causes gun to feel unbalanced in water. I had to lower my mounts as this was an issue, as was focus on fish. I also recommend some rubber be introduced to act as a cushion / buffer to shooting shock ( in my case tore the camera housing base plate out of polycarbonate - However I have 3 rubbers!!)
si... e come fai a caricarlo con quella staffa in mezzo ai piedi??? :-)

Nice mount anyway...

very easy to load.....although now i am working on a new mount as aiming down the barrel isnt the easiest with this one
Next mount uses a Lab Clamp and the cam is moreso mounted off to the side....+ no drilling of the barrel = WIN : )

I wasnt too keen on drilling new holes into the barel, but Zoran used a silicone in the holes to prevent any water coming in.
The gun tracks nicely through the water and loading is a sinch! i Guess cause the camera sits higher then most other mounts.
3 Rubbers!?!? wow
I shot it a few times with camera attached and the recoil doesnt seem too bad whilst camera is filming
