Re: Sneak Attack Problems

Looks like you have a different mark of sneak attack. The selector was pretty much riveted in, and the case is clamped under the nozzle selector, correct? If possible, try gently pulling or prying the selector off. Should that fail, you may need a new gun. I personally do not own a sneak attack, so ...

Re: Sneak Attack Problems

Do NOT put on any Vaseline! It will deteriorate the rubber seal of the pump. There is a mod, but it requires a case mod and everything. Could something be clogging the nozzle? That is one reason why I could imagine that something stops it from letting you fire or load water because of some residue. ...

Re: Hands-On: Mizumi Shubi

Wow, I'd kind of like to see this gun in action.

EDIT: The KEN looks amazing! It reminds me of an arm mounted railgun. Where can I buy them? Only downside I can see is that the pump cap is upside down, and the price tag of 40 bucks US :oo:

Re: Broken(ish) Tiger Shark

I know of the article you speak of. It is on SSC and has pictures of an FF being fixed, right? I will find it, and edit this post with it.

EDIT: found it! http://forums.sscentral.org/t2730

Re: repair of my XXP 275

If the cogs give you a problem, just take a small dowel or something similar, remove the original handle, and replace it with the dowel. Then, cut a hole in the case so that the arm can open and close the valve.

Wal-Mart sells both, and in Toys R Us they have some WW guns, but larger selections of water guns.

By the way, there is a method of fixing the spring problem, there is an article over on SSC about the "silent Max-D trigger". I believe it was Hunter who did it.

Get two. The Orca and the Monster XL are both really good guns, and you could get both for under 30 pounds!

Re: Max-D 6000 or water warriors orca/other?

The Orca is better, by both ranges and output. I have compared the ranges, and the Orca can shoot decent distances, and only requires like 20 pumps or less for full pressure. Just tap-shoot, and it will not lose much range.

Nice report though, did you make the names for the teams, or was it chosen by members? It seems as though it was a balanced (numbers wise) battle though.

Re: Name the Water Blaster Parts - Round 2

Isn't the PRV in the pump? That is where they are in other Pressurized Reservoir guns. The Hydroblade has the same pump, just different colours than the Liquidator.

Re: Name the Water Blaster Parts - Round 2

There is no #10 (in theory) in the Piranha, but the closest thing would be the tube that connects the reservoir to the check valves and pump. That would be # 10 (At the back of the gun)

If you still haven't decided, go to somewhere that has pasta. You need lots of carbs, which will give you ready to access energy, unlike fats, which require more of a solid workout beforehand
