The Padauk Series spearguns are an exact replica of our famous Competitor Series with exception of the wood. We replaced the teak with an African blood wood commonly known as Padauk. When using a dense, straight grain hardwood such as Paduak we are able to maintain the straightness of the speargun barrels and eliminate the lamination process. This Series of spearguns are very attractive, not only the way they perform and look but how they are priced.
Similar to the Competitor Series, the Padauk Series was designed for entry level and advanced divers, most suitable for hunting around reefs, holes, and on the bottom.
Padauk X models feature a 5″(12.7cm) rear stock extension for ease of hip loading (2″(5cm) longer than teak models).
