I managed to pick up a Nemron Galeon (sp?) speargun. I think it’s the right kind as the “S” has an identical font as the one in the 90s icons archive photos.
now, this thing was easy to take a part... until it wasn’t. I read up o how these function: you hand pump air into the rear and a piston system moves the spear forward while keeping things air-tight. Also... oil. And sand. Together they will pour out when you disassemble it :lol
now, I think the muzzle is crusted on and the barrel is stuck in place, so I tried to remove the back compressed air chamber. (Since the greeblies seem to begin immediately after the handle, there’s something before the v8 part?!)
so I was cutting ... and cutting... and realized a pipe should have opened up already, so I cut a couple inches down the chamber and it finally came off. Then I got to study the inside - there seems to be a pin that comes from the trigger, an inner pipe and some piece of solid metal BEFORE the plastic handle. And the thing won’t unscrew either. Anyone taken one of these apart?
These also are are the greeblies I have - the mystery part was sculpted by someone and cast in resin
