Cressi Apache Aluminum Speargun with Galvanized Notched Shaft & Circular Elastic Band - Made in Italy: Quality Since 1946

It definitely works! Takes a little getting used to but on my second day of shore diving, I was able to catch 2 fish. One thing I will flag is that cressi’s spear tip replacements are hard to come by. Don’t expect to order replacement on Amazon. Just make sure you check your tip after every shot and give it a tighten. Other than that. Great product!

Great speargun. My first one. I am new to this and really like it so far. Speared a fish on my first shot. Very strong and powerful. My friends tell me to replace the string, cuz original is not that great, but I'm fine with it so far. I'll wait and see if it breaks later. Mine is very long, and it's a bit hard to load, and I am tall guy (6'1") with long arms, but I like the longer barrel to be positioned farther away from the fish without spooking them. But if you are shorter, definitely get a smaller version, you won't be able to load it.

I used this speargun for many years hunting lionfish in the Caribbean. When I left the Islands I gave it to a diver friend and he's still using it. I returned to the Islands for a few weeks so I ordered a new Cressi to do a little hunting. It is very easy to use and a perfect size for those close up shots.

The spear gun turned out to be ineffective—it would strike the fish but have no real impact at all. In addition, the firing mechanism broke after a single use. The trigger would lock once every three times. It’s more like a toy than a fishing gear!

Good for beginners. I haven’t actually used it yet but I have just in case for fishing. It’s lightweight. It’s easy to use.

This gun gives me mixed emotions, I got it last week and spear fishing with it on Tuesday. It has 2 notches on the spear so I started out on the first notch, bad idea need more power. The people that say longer is better are right as far as spear guns are concerned. I only dove for about 30 minutes in very cold water at about 8300ft if you try and shoot a fish from above you will hear your spear deflect off of it, however if you shoot them from the side you will have significant penetration. Overall I am happy with this purchase just wish I would have purchased the longest possible. The Europeans have slimmer spears and I see they might be onto something, however I was impressed with how easily I got used to this speargun and was able to reload and wrap the string up within 20 minutes. I also draped the string through the gun as it comes longer than necessary and drug it back down the shaft where I wrapped it 3 times and I could easily draw the spear cord taunt after I wrapped it from nose to hook. It also added a buffer for when I was out of line dragging fish around so it served 2 purposes. Honestly I was planning my next spear fishing journey with this gun on my way home and it's a day away and I am overzealous with anticipation.

Bought this for a wedding gift for a friend of mine because I had absolutely no idea what else to get him. The reviews all seemed to indicate that it was a reliable, quality speargun that was a good choice for beginners. (Neither of us had ever used one in our lives, as far I know.) When I arrived about a month ago, (very quick delivery, by the way) I took it out of the box and could not tell if it was loaded or not. Honestly, I was too scared to check for fear that I may accidentally shoot myself, my fiancee, or one of our cats. Anyway, when I finally gave it to him he was over the moon; this was clearly a good choice. Also, despite receiving it well over a month ago, I only got the email asking me to rate this the day AFTER I give it to him. That's just spooky, so extra points for that.

While I wish it came with an elastic band in the line to ease loading (hard to hook the line to the release with the shaft clicked in) the speargun works as advertised and I got a double bar goatfish and blue travolli on my first time out with it.

This Cressi Apache is a fantastic speargun. The elastic has a great snap to it, and the gun feels incredibly well-balanced in the water. It’s accurate right out of the box and perfect for both beginners and more experienced divers. Very happy with the build quality!

威力は十分だが魚突きの腕がないので まだ魚は突いていない。

It came without line , at least can I learn the measurement of that rope !

ダイビング時でも護身用に最適。

J'ai reçu le produit déjà rouillé. J'ai contacté Cressi pour qu'ils m'envoient simplement un nouvel emboût de harpon, et ils m'en ont envoyé un.
