Clam Gun

Sturdy. Cost effective. Works very well. Would buy again.

Easy to use, and works most of the time. It works well for small clams. Could be a little bigger for bigger clams. Some rust over time.

It works, but little heavy, metal, gets rusted some area,

Color is cool and the price was fair. We don’t go clamming often so this price was affordable.

There are more expensive metal clam guns, but this one worked very well for us! Sturdy and easy to use. Dug many clams during the season. Just make sure to rinse off and dry after using.

[Haven't used it myself yet]It came with an Amazon Returns label still stuck to it as well as the entire interior being rusted from obvious use.Other than that, it seems like a solid product. Good sized handles for a good grip. Sturdy build.Resolved the condition issue with Amazon Customer Service live chat agent. $20 credit towards next purchase (as I didn't want to return it).

This clam gun def delivers! Have only tried once on one outing so far, Washington coast with Razor Clams. Did such a great job of pulling, maintaining suction while easing out, was a world of difference from other clam guns! Went through ~40 clams and did great for the first round. Will be back out and update if there is anything that changes, but peformance was great so far!

I have no idea what we were doing wrong with this gun. Maybe it's defective? It works great for the first pull up, pulls every bit out, but consecutive pulls don't work. It seems to lose the suction and neither husband or myself could figure out why. We tried it with gloved hands and bare hands for plugging the hole on the handle, to no avail. Every single second dig down the same hole would lose the suction on the way up.I've watched a good amount of youtube videos, I see that clam guns can work well on second, third, even fourth consecutive digs in the same hole. Not this one.The pacific razors tend to be a way down, at least here in the type of sand we dig them in. This gun fails to dig deep enough because the suction breaks on the every pull up after the first. It completely defeats the purpose of digging razors, I'm better off starting with a small shovel, less work and I ended up having to hand dig every hole another 6-8 inches that was started with this thing anyway.I am giving it three stars instead of two for now because my son was able to use it for very shallow holes and pull up little necks with it. However, it takes practically zero effort to dig them with your hands in exposed bed. He did mange to get one streamer clam that wasn't damaged with this, they aren't as deep as the pacific razors and have a softer shell. They are difficult to dig because you have to be SUPER careful not to break them, this seemed to do OK with the one he found. I will have to try it for steamers at a different spot to see how it works. If it works well for steamers I will update my review accordingly.Overall, I'm not really happy with the way it performed, not one razor clam was pulled with this gun due to the lack of depth able to be achieved, which was due to loss of proper suction.

Makes Clamming Amazingly easy!!! We filled out bucket in no time!!!

Worked as indicated, lost 1 star cause paint was ground off after first using for about 10 minutes. But this does not hinder how well it works. Well made, welds where nice and clean, no sharp edges, light enough to carry around easily.

Nice clam gun... just got to get used to the hole plug to create suction

very pleased with clam gun.Rick.

crushed a few clams but overall great item
