When we decide to spend our hard-earned money on a product there are typically two choices to consider. Do I buy the most affordable product in the line to save a little money, or do I go for the best possible quality product to ensure that it will last a lifetime.


It’s a classic question, and with so many gear choices in front of us as spearos it can be an infinitely difficult decision to make if you don’t have the decades of experience with the many product lines and to top it all off, the savings can be substantial in the event that you were to purchase the most affordable gun in a line.


Questions arise like “Will more money give me better quality?”, “Are the expensive ones overpriced to begin with” and “Will I just end up buying a new gun in a year if I go cheap?”.


All things to consider, but with so many options and subtleties within the speargun brands it can be close to impossible for one person to become well-enough equipped with information to make an educated decision. That’s where you come in.
