speargun
Diver's hunting tool
A speargun is an underwater weapon that fires a spear or harpoon, used for spearfishing.
Most spearguns use rubber bands or compressed air to propel the shaft.
The spear typically has a barbed tip and remains attached to the gun by a line: He loaded his speargun and dove toward the reef.
