I have no clue what box the top one came in. I got it at a yard sale on Saturday (for $2!) The bottom one actually might be a Euro version. Dad got in on-base in Germany, so it could just be one from a nearby store. Is there any performance difference? Which side do the stickers usually come on? ED...

The one on the bottom (Dad's) seems to be slightly bigger.

I would range test them, but his trigger valve is broken...

I still think it would be neat to have a pre-made "riot blast" nozzle.

Yes! 2700 Forever! :bm2700:

Good review, and I am glad that at least one other person doesn't think that the 2700 is horrible!

There is one disadvantage of a CPS 2500 (or any medium-to-large CPS) being used on an area with 1/16th the gravity of the Earth. Quite simply, "Every action has an equal and opposite reaction." -Newton's Third Law I can just imagine you trying to control the spray as you're flying backwards towards...

Two words: cattle prod. :p I've heard that soime Water Warriors guns shoot around thirty or forty feet. Their stream isn't as powerful as a CPS 2000 mk. 1, so it should be safe to use. Heck, my Dad shoots me in the face all the time with his CPS 1700. Just don't shoot unless that cat's doing someth...

I probably spent the same amount. Fortunately, I found a very rare card in a pack, and sold it for $175. That helped pay off nearly all of the cards.

(FYI, it was a German 1st Edition Charizard)

A pellet gun, but that is the same scenario...

I've heard that a CPS stream can, if it is forceful enough, pop water balloons. I'm not sure if this is true, but you could use this idea.

Maybe it would be easier if the nozzle size was in comparison to the maximum size (a.k.a "Riotblast" nozzle).

I was thinking that it looked very similar to a flyswatter. Do you think that you could use a flyswatter as a WBL?

Yes, I can just imagine the headlines.

Allegedly, the killer was trying to pop a water balloon in a tree while running. Edited By ...
