Not to bunch up anyone's panties, but I know only two divers who use pneumatics and they are both women. In the environment that I dive, we prefer overpowered band guns with 3/8" shafts and cable for shooting line. We dive the industrial environment of the oil rigs and generally don't start hunting until 150 fsw.
And as far as the JBL 38 Special not having ample power, go to www.helldivers.org and check out the Alligator gar that we are shooting with them. A buddy got a 70# fish Sunday morning and another buddy killed one over 89# last year. If you are bouncing shafts off of a 5# bass then you have a major problem with your gear or your hunting technique or both. My wife killed a 44# Amberjack two weekends ago with a 44" Sawed Off Magnum. When was the last time you sharpened your point? What size bands are you using? What trigger mechanism is on your gun? What kind/how much shooting line do you use?
Again, and it is PROBABLY obvious, I do not use pneumatics and have very limited interaction with people who do.
