Over/Under Self Defense Spear Gun: Better than commercial models?

    ------------------------------------
    In the last video, we looked at under water spear guns and tested if they work as makeshift home defense weapons.
    Turns out we were wrong in some of our findings - we stand corrected!
    In any case, one of the biggest disadvantage of spear guns is that they have one shot only. This seems inadequate for the purpose - at least two shots are called for !
    So we designed AND built one of the few all-metal weapons we ever made... a short (50cm) double shot spear gun that is no doubts effective both under AND above water.
    See for yourself!

    What I Love about Joerg's channel is he is NOT like youtubers my age that are so used to the internet they have removed the human element from their videos. This guy whispers little secrets to the camera, he asks his viewers to take guesses at what will happen, he keeps it interesting! (I love over pressurizing things too!) You are my new favorite TV to watch when I eat or have some downtime! Way better than cable! Bravo Joerg keep it up. You ARE a TV personality!

    If I had to weaponize a speargun, I'd combine two pneumatics side-by-side for a double-barreled speargun (with duct tape, or something more
    elegant), and would see how they penetrate with broadheads! Great video, Joerg! Interesting and potentially even life-saving!

    Wow, that air powered Spear Gun is impressive. Such a heavy bolt, FPE consistent with high powered crossbows. I got an idea for improving the Spear gun. Use a lighter grain Crossbow bolt instead and equip some iron sights or a scope on the gun. Not a bad improvised air gun shooting arrows/bolts and may cost a great deal less than the Crossman/Benjamin version that was recently released. The same could be done to the rubber version as well.

    Joerg, i don't know if you know this, or if someone else mentioned it, but I think it is interesting, since you are a zombie fan. The air powered speargun was used by John Leguizamo in the Romero movie, Land of the dead! His looks like it has wood on it though. He uses it to shoot zombies in the head. So if you were wondering, it works for zombies. But he doesn't show you it's features.
