Its balanced wooden stock combines an enclosed shaft track with a hip-loading arrangement designed for an all-around hunting setup.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch6\u003eTracking and band layout\u003c\/h6\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe stock is rounded and narrowed through the middle to reduce resistance while swinging the gun toward a target. The enclosed track supports the shaft path during loading and firing, while the top of the stock omits band channels so the loaded bands stay away from the shaft line and leave a clearer sight path.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eEach power band passes through its own muzzle hole. This keeps the bands separated and allows an individual band to be changed without removing the complete set.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch6\u003eHandling and loading\u003c\/h6\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Rock Grip handle uses an aggressive textured pattern to help maintain hand position while shooting. At the rear, a molded rubber butt provides a patterned contact surface for hip loading the multi-band system.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch6\u003eReplacement setup\u003c\/h6\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe stock maintains equal thickness at the front and rear, providing a consistent mounting surface for a spare shaft and holder. Replacement bands and shafts are size-specific: band length changes with gun size, while replacement shaft length also depends on the selected gun size and whether a flopper or threaded shaft is used. Confirm the gun configuration and shaft style before ordering replacement rigging.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Koah","offers":[{"title":"42 in","offer_id":48937364324544,"sku":"UYL-745-CHQ","price":665.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"45 in","offer_id":48937364357312,"sku":"NJL-256-EHN","price":685.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"48 in","offer_id":48937364390080,"sku":"ESI-946-OSM","price":705.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"52 in","offer_id":48937364422848,"sku":"DZK-985-DFY","price":725.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"54 in","offer_id":48937364455616,"sku":"JEY-639-GGQ","price":750.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"57 in","offer_id":48937364488384,"sku":"GRS-689-FZI","price":750.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0734\/7394\/9888\/files\/972f7eac-27f9-44fa-9754-8ad034e903cd.webp?v=1788232727"},{"product_id":"koah-shortie-mid-handle-speargun","title":"Koah Shortie Mid-Handle Speargun","description":"\u003ch6\u003eOverview\u003c\/h6\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Koah Shortie Mid is a compact band-powered wooden speargun intended for low-visibility reef hunting, hole shooting, and close-range work around rocks and ledges.
