Abstract
A device for launching and storing a spear. The device includes a barrel having a muzzle end and an action end. The barrel is configured to slidably receive at least a portion of the spear through the muzzle end and the action end, such that a tip of the spear is positioned within the barrel and an end of the spear extends out of the barrel through the action end. The device also includes a handle coupled with the barrel and extending at a non-zero angle to the barrel. The handle includes a grip that is configured to be gripped by a user when launching the spear, and a protective guard coupled with the grip and extending therefrom at least partially in a direction toward the muzzle end of the barrel.

A device for launching and storing a spear, comprising:
- a barrel having a muzzle end and an action end, wherein the barrel is configured to slidably receive at least a portion of the spear through the muzzle end and the action end, such that a tip of the spear is positioned within the barrel and an end of the spear extends out of the barrel through the action end;
- and
- a handle extending at a non-zero angle to the barrel, wherein the handle comprises:
- a grip that is configured to be gripped by a user when launching the spear;
- and
- a rigid protective guard coupled with the grip and extending therefrom at least partially in a direction toward the muzzle end of the barrel,
- wherein the guard is configured to prevent the user's hand from touching a fish speared by the spear as the spear is retracted in the barrel.
