looking for a cheap CPS-class blaster - anyone got one?
For those who recently started or are having a difficult time finding powerful weaponry, CPS seems like the answer, but is nowhere to be found. Around my area this is one of the most difficult things for someoen to cope with in a war, since if they dont have a CPS grade weaponry, they assume they wontbe able to defeat my team boasting large CPS weaponry (there wrong, skill could defeat us.) Here are a few things to help you out:BlueMage wrote:i am looking for a CPS class blaster, nothing huge,maybe a 1000. i also need an SC power pak, (with QFD). it seems that at just the time i need them, there are no CPS blasters available. make an offer, i don't have any set price i'm willing to pay. thanks!
1.) Check local stores. If you are looking for a smaller weight CPS Blaster, the Wateer Warriors Blazer, Lightning, and Pirahna are readily available for purchase at K-marts, Toys'R'us, Wal*Mart, KB Toys, and other toy retailers.
2.) Check garage Sales and ask friends. Youc an always check out garage sales for water weaponry. While most may not have waterguns, or some have beat up ones that can be fixed, or perfectly good ones, its always worth a shot to check these out. Back in the CPS Days, some didnt touch their weaponry. They left it in the attic or storage and finally bring it out for a sale. Also ask friends if they have any water guns, and if they are willing to trade/sell.
3.) And of course, Ebay. this will be your best source of weaponry, but expect to pay high prices.
I wish you luck, and I dont quite think you will find what you are looking for on the forums, but patience is a virtue, you will get them at one point or another if you search hard enough.

If you are lucky enough to live in America, (and most of you are) then you can find virtually any CPS soaker on ebay. Also, Amazon.com have CPS 4100s for 20 bucks, which is cheaper than you'll find most for on ebay anyway. You can also do what I did (if you can be bothered) and call every Toys "R" Us and K-Mart store in your state, (I called multiple states) and you're bound to find a couple of reasonable soakers.

I don't think you can get any 4100's from Amazon.com anymore... I'm pretty sure they're sold out. I hope they're not because I'd like to get one, but every time I look it says they're out of stock.

Yes, I learned about all the different soakers, their nozzle settings, capacity and other details from isoaker's site and others.
Falcon, do you call the different regions "States" in Australia?
Yeah, they're called states, but Australia only has 6 states, although they are large ones. There are also two territories, I don't know why they are called territories, but they are much the same thing as states.

You can still turn to the best source of soakers of all though: ebay. You can find virtually any soaker on ebay, and often it is cheap. Not to mention Amazon with their CPS 4100s.
