The pre-charger series are all named after different gases. Your teacher was not talking about water guns. I f you look on a periodic table of elements then you would see the Krypton and Xenon.

Sorry, but nothing like what you are describing is in existence. If you want powerful guns without Hasbro or eBay then I would suggest going down to a local hardware store and picking up some homemade parts. If you don't want to do that then you might want to try to modify a Hasbro gun. EDIT: IF yo...

CPS is here. It never even left. Hasbro might have stopped making them, but there is always eBay, Homemades, and (as Doom already stated) Water Warriors.

Also why would a multinational billion dollars+ company bother listening to 500 signatures?

how can we make soakers safer while still makeing them shoot really far? You can increase a gun's range by using methods other than just increasing the power. For example if you use a nozzle that increases stream lamination and reduces wind resistance you can get increased range without more force.

I don't think that they make soakers that are that hard to pump during testing. That would alienate pretty much everyone that is not a bodybuilder, and lose tons of customers. It sounds like you just need to do a simple lubrication job. That invovles opening it, but it makes things very easy to pum...

They are already out, you just need to know where to find them. Alot of them are out on Amazon already (some of them don't have pics, or have typos, just read the text). Amazon has both the backpack and the FF. Also, there are quite a few threads on this already such as "2006 soaker shopping" and "...

Try holding the pin down while blowing through where the pc goes on, I tend to do that to test and see if it is clogged with something that holds it open. Another thing to try is just using a bigger rubberband, or adding on a few, sometimes one just doen't do the trick.

It sounds like a nerf gun to me. The main difference is in what it shoots. I think that you could just stretch the spring out a bit and get more range. Another good mod would be (as everyone says) to enlarge the pc, I think that you should just replace it with pvc to do that. Edited By Some Guy on ...

I've been looking for a blazer for a while too. I think that most powerful WW water guns are sold at K-mart. I forget where I heard this though, but you might want to try them. I'll double-check on that though.

^ You make a good point, about it not being fun to be totally overpowered in comparison to your opponent. When I'm in neighborhood fights with people I know, I prefer to use lower end guns (Argon, Lightning, XP 240, etc.). But if I could I would prefer to have CPS fights. What I've been doing now i...

I thik I prefer range error over time error. Then again though I'm not the greatest when it comes to the latter. Plus you only need 1 person to do isoaker's method.

They still have liquidators (assuming that's the pistol) in this line. :cooll: For once though, it looks like a Hasbro gimmick might have accidently did something good. they wouldn't be able to make the Defender backpack-compatible if it were PR.

Yay, that backpack attachment looks much more easily adapted than a cap. You might be able to screw it into a female adapter and fill the spaces with epoxy.

By new fast-fill cap do you mean that they made another? Or just that they work with last years. I hope that they're new, because I tested my FF's cap on my other guns, and it doesn't fit any of them. It also won't fit on all the PVC I've tried.

I'm not quite sure if the red thing on the left is a FF recolor. Possibly, but the pump shaft has been moved to the upper level, but it's quite likely just to be a remake. I'm interested in the right hand green thing though, but it looks alot just like a max-d or another thing like the max-infusion.

I think that a good epoxy should work, assuming that you mean you fixed the seal and everything, and just want to close it up again. Try not to get any in the inside though, that would probably make a worse problem.
