Where to buy

Another good value speargun is the Beuchat Espadon Sport. Designed for reef and shallow water spearfishing, the pistol-style handle is comfortable to hold, with or without gloves. Again, this gun comes in a variety of lengths and the 1-inch (25 mm) diameter aluminum barrel is built to float.

A line release ensures smooth release of the braided polyamide line when fired.

Things we like:

  • Great value for money
  • Accurate
  • Lightweight and the barrel floats

Things we don't like:

  • You need to be strong to load the longer guns so not ideal for younger spearfishers
  • Firing mechanism not strong enough to handle more than one bands
  • Tip not great for spearing large fish
