Just kidding. Yeah, I've already snagged myself two 1200s. No more equipment crisis this year for my league.

Yeah, I doubt there's much monetary value for the gun, but I imagine that if you're a collector of any sort, the 10th aniversary would be pretty cool to own.

Come to think of it, anyone think Hasbro will be nice enough to give us a 20th aniversary edition next year? :O :oo: :O

I was thinking of trying to get it, but I'm sure there's people here who would appreciate it much more than I. Anyway, if you're interested, heres the link: [url=http...

I've only used the CPS 4100, and since the grass is always greener on the other side, I voted CPS 1500/1700. The CPS 4100 has average range, fairly low shot time, no QFD, a broken trigger, and the worst pump I've ever used. Sure, say it's a tracked pump, but the fact is that it's not easy to hold o...

I know that some would argue that the only similarity between these two guns is the fact that they're both medium CPS blasters, but whenever I fight my 1500 friend with my 4100, it always seems strangely even tech-wise. And yes, we can all throw around stats and deduce that one's better than the ot...

:oo: A spring airsoft pistol only shoots around 250 fps. At point blank range it stings, and leaves a red mark. It's not going to seriously injure the dog. Besides, dogs have fur to cushion the impact. Perhaps a BB gun is a little much, but an airsoft gun would be fine. Ehhh..... I've always been s...

Any info on the other team? What kind of 1HK games do you guys do? The bottom list of four people is the other team. As of yet I've never been able to successfully convince the people of my league to try a 1HK, but with the discovery of our new wooded area, we are going to try our first one this sp...

Hey guys. Over the past four years now, I have been trying to set up a soaker team to combat my local veteran team "The Jihad Machines." This year, I have a good feeling that it might just work out, especially with the enormous success of last year's end-of-the-year battle. The biggest problem my p...

If the secondary tank with the logo on it is a CPS chamber (which it almost certainly is), wouldn't the screwed on cap make it incredibly easy to just screw it off and colossus mod the PC? :oo:

Knowing Hasbro, they probably glued it on or something :angry:

Glad to hear Ridgewood Millitia's keeping it together! Although my friends and I play on a level that does not begin to rival your's, we've been pretty blessed with competence and weaponry.

Is there perhaps any shance that hasbro hasn't finalized the exact design yet and is still arguing over battery vs pump? That would explain the lack of concrete information/a good picture. Whoa, I just noticed something. If you take a close look at the picture rook posted, you'll notice a little bl...

I just noticed something about the Covert Control/secret Strike: The hidden nozzle is right below the normal one, angling downwards. You can see it on the box pic. The kid is pointing the gun upwards, but it's shooting downwards. As for the hydroblitz, it seems to me that the entire back end is the...

However. certain older tactics and certain ambushes do work from real life. The Swinging Gate Charge comes straight out of the Battle of Gettysburg and Triple Envelopment from the Battle of Cannae. Because water wars tend to be two opposing armies of infantry, you can apply older tactics [pre-1865]...
