very good review ! thx for sharing , but i dont agree with "metal trigger is a sign of good quality" metal trigger is not smooth enough if the gun holds 2-3 rubbers. the RA trigger is very good and very smooth , but not metal
Per Riffe's website, they use "spring stainless steel." The magnet isn't super strong but is definitely noticeable and in our opinion, a great feature.
Dude I use a old biller 48 with notched shaft and have killed grouper over 130 and AJ's at 95 and never had a notched shaft hurt me dude you need to keep it real!!!!!
That's not the common opinion of most folks. There's always something that works for someone, but if it has a common reputation with many folks, that's statistically not the way to go.
@@finandforage9607 but like you said it's a opinion not fact!!! I have had huge fish tear through a reef with my shaft and the shaft might have bent but not at the notches
@@thomaskitlica5572 In an industry like ours, when the majority experience an issue with a particular set up, I'd say it comes with some merit. Maybe not rock solid, but definitely worth consideration. I have no doubt they work. I've used 120s with 250# mono on tuna before out of necessity, it worked, but isn't recommendable.
Great review! Keep it up

Overall I like the content just wish you would cover some of the old reliable guns
So that wooden gun doesn't come with a stainless steel shaft if it has a magnet to hold it in place as true stainless isn't magnetic?

Wooden gun lacks precision.
