thanks guys

I wouldnt go so far as to say ALL of their gear is amazing. I have 3 of their shafts and they are the biggest POS shafts I have ever seen. If it wasnt so much trouble, I would send them back to where they came.

I said all the stuff I've seen is amazing SO FAR. Spend more time reading less time being a tool

I dont have any first hand experience with the intruder, but i do have a voodoo pro and its a sweet gun. My only complaint is the wire fins breaking rather quickly. It looks like the intruders have notched shafts so my complaint wouldn't apply to them. But like the majority of the other posters have already stated, most salvimar products are great.

yeah they do have a notched shaft so lets hope hey survive... but with the wire fins breaking couldnt you just use a shark fin shaft?

and all the feedback is looking good so far thanks people.

What is the band thickness of the Intruder? I have seen 13mm in one place and 16mm in another. Not sure what is accurate.

In any case can the mech support 16mm bands?

Can the notches hold dyneema or spectra wishbones?

I am looking for a short, travel 50 or 60 reef gun that fits in my duffel. I have a pneumatic (Salvimar Predathor 65), but I heard pneumatics are not allowed in Mexico, where I was thinking of traveling to. Other option Cressi Sioux 50 (there is an Apache 45, but rather get a 50)
thank you

thanks
