The absolute leading international handle is called LEADER and is a creation of MEANDROS .

It is incomparable, it does not follow the established design and construction standards, but it leads, it is a pioneer and it guides the rest.

It has been designed and studied to overcome the problems and weaknesses common to all parameters, offering the user a high quality experience in terms of anatomy, use, construction, long-term reliability and excellent functioning of all mechanical parts.

The grip features an impressive aesthetic and anatomical design, with a particularly low profile that offers a friendly, comfortable, and practical grip that instantly receives hand commands without the slightest discomfort in the user's palm. The angle and conical geometry of the grip allow for palm-hugging sizes from S to XXL, which the user feels like an extension of their arm.

The grip body in terms of material and statics, despite its extremely low profile, which significantly contributes to agility, reduced recoil and aiming with the index finger of the palm rather than the eye, and its compressed external dimensions, absolutely successfully corresponds to large loads with almost zero distortion of both the front sight and the shot.

It features an innovative, patented stainless steel inverted mechanism that is lightweight, yet robust, powerful, and reliable, with excellent ergonomics designed to work flawlessly.

The mechanism is produced in 2 versions depending on the rifle model:

A) with classic inverted rod hook. B) with (roller system - on request) 

The PIN ROLLER system It has been researched and designed to circumvent all the common problems in the construction, use, and longevity of existing complex, multi-sync systems that interfere with trigger sensitivity.

It offers reduced friction with zero wear at the contact point with the bar but also distributes the load received by the bar over 3 points . Two contact points on the case and one point on the hook that now accepts a small portion of the pressure applied, rather than 100%. The hook now has much lower pressure at the contact point with the trigger, resulting in much less pressure applied to the trigger to release the bar than with a classic reverse mechanism.

The tilt angle of the oval hole that slides inside the trigger rod reduces and reverses the torque, determining the pressure load applied to the trigger. The strong negative tilt of the oval hole can even eliminate the pressure applied to the line release extension exerted on the trigger. This system offers the advantage of simplifying the construction without compromising or sacrificing the trigger sensitivity issue caused by the pressure load at the point of contact with the trigger hook, and thus circumvents the disadvantages of more complex systems with roller bearings in contact with the trigger and additional components used in the assembly and intended operation regarding the trigger sensitivity of the mechanism.

The innovative design of the trigger outside the cassette mechanism offers enormous advantages, including minimal weight of the metal mechanism (heavy duty), minimal external dimensions, static resistance, and resistance to deformation in the grip. The recess in the rear of the trigger provides elegance with minimal weight; it is a patented visual feature of our mechanisms.

Maintenance, disassembly, repair and replacement will not concern the user.

Changing the line release side has never been easier, it's quick and easy without removing and disassembling the mechanism. The ambidextrous line release works independently of the trigger and spear, preventing the effect of a stiff trigger, spear deformation, and shot distortion.

The excellent line of sight, the unchanged sensitivity with a small trigger travel, are self-evident concepts for MEANDROS.

The square V-shaped shaft guide (not the U-shaped one) contacts the shaft at three points, ensuring precise positioning, smooth gliding, and reduced friction. Additionally, there's a visible and accessible hole that communicates with a micro-chamber inside the handle, which drains any water trapped during immersion due to inertia.

The barrel is sealed with a special cap mounted on the handle, which eliminates the possibility of water infiltration even at extremely deep depths. For even the most demanding users, a vibration dampening system can be retrofitted.
The line stubs are easily and ambidextrously attached close to the grip/barrel body via ergonomic horizontal baffles, positioned well above the center of the grip, avoiding the bumps, jams and wobbling that occur with the angular outlets protruding from the side grip.

The trigger guard, in addition to providing a safety switch and securing the trigger, is designed to provide a comfortable resting and relaxing point for the index finger and to press the trigger at the correct distance from its pivot point. It can be fitted to a 26.0 mm or 29.0 mm diameter tubular barrel, as well as an oval barrel version.

Whichever version of the LEADER Handle you choose, you will immediately feel that it is not just a handle but a great tool and the extension of your hand that will capture the prey your index finger is aiming for.
