First, I was by a well known gun manufactuer just by chance on a recent trip, this past week and you know I understand the armed forces want a .45 again. Seems the 9mm is just not stopping the crazies.

I agree with you, and it is a situation that makes the 230 gr slug of the .45 even more appealing.9mm ball ammo isn't stopping the crazies. The Geneva convention means that the last 100 years of ammunition development are denied to soldiers in combat.
Thanks again for all the replies - great info (on both fins and guns). I have been a rec (ow) diver for > 15 years but want to start getting into some basic tech stuff like wrecks. It seems like the jet fin is a great all around fin - and the fin of choice for the hard core techies...
I think I'm gonna give em a shot - especially since I dive in CA and wear lots of rubber.
Whats wrong with cocked and locked? They are designed to be carried that way and are perfectly safe.
I've been using ScubaPro Jetfins for over 20 years. For me, they work the best. I've occaitionally tried others, but always came back to the jetfins. I actually have a back up pair!
Sure, they're heavy and big, which doesn't make them the best traveling fins, but I get all the power I need from them when I need it and as well as all the subtleties I need for frog kicks, fanning and backing up.
