My Holy Grail is going to take a different turn... but it is a single shot.

I have always loved the movie "Jaws." Ever since, I thought it would be cool to have one of the Greener Harpoon guns like Quint used on the great white. I remember seeing them in the H&R catalogs when I was in high school. I remember seeing them in Navy Arms catalogs when I was a new teacher starting out, and VERY poor. Then saw a couple at Butterfields' auctions, bid on them, but not enough. Then, there was one at a Cabelas a few weeks ago, but was sold before I could win the lottery, or think of what to sell to get it.

What would I do with it? I don't know. When I had my parents' place I could have shot a deer from the front door as he was eating apples off the tree and could prevent him from running off into a neighbor's yard or pool. But then sold the property. Soo... the search goes on.

I suppose it would be just as cheap to make my own version with a machinist's help using a T/C Contender carbine and sacrificing a .357 barrel (I have both ).
Perhaps one of you has one gathering dust, and perhaps I have something you have a hankering for....
