About Spitfire
What makes Spitfire different from other speargun brands?
Spitfire Spearguns blend European ergonomics, premium components, and rugged American build quality. Every gun is handbuilt in Virginia, tuned for real-world performance, and sold direct so more of your money goes into the build instead of retail markup.
Where are Spitfire Spearguns made?
Every Spitfire speargun is handbuilt in Virginia. We source premium components from trusted suppliers, then assemble and tune each gun for performance, durability, and confidence in the water.
Who are these guns built for?
Spitfire guns are built for divers who care about precision, power, handling, and reliability. Whether you hunt tight structure, open reefs, wrecks, or blue water, the lineup is designed to give you the right tool without unnecessary compromise.
Roller Gun Questions
Why a roller gun instead of a conventional speargun?
Roller guns store band energy more efficiently, which means more shaft speed and power from a compact platform. You get a shorter gun that still delivers serious performance.
Are roller guns harder to maintain?
Not when they are built right. Spitfire guns use proven components and straightforward rigging, so maintenance stays simple and reliability stays high.
Do roller guns hit harder?
They can. The advantage is not hype, it is efficiency. A well-built roller can deliver more usable power from a shorter platform, which is why the design matters so much.
Shipping and Orders
How quickly do orders ship?
In-stock orders typically ship within 3-5 business days.
