Decent for the size. Not great though. The big stream lasts for only a second and drains half your reservior. Also the trigger is weak.

It really depends. The triple shot has three nozzles, and it's small. If your looking for a decent and flexible backup/sidearm, the triple shot does the trick (I own one myself). As for the trigger, I've had mine for a year and there hasn't been any problems with mine yet. Also like avis implied, the water reservoir is pretty small.

I own two and i do like them. the make an awsome sidearm. the reservior may be a bit small but the big blast gets the job done in close combat. plus i like being able to change stream sizes on a side arm of that size. i was sad when they got rid of them this year.

is there anything I should keep in mind when using it? (like how many times to pump it without breaking it)

I believe it will say how many times to pump it on the box you get it in. Be careful with the trigger. The Triple Shot uses a Max-D trigger, I believe, so it could break anytime. Treating the trigger gently might help it last a bit longer.

make sure the caps on good since there is no second pressure chamber it is real picky on that. if ur cap not on good and u pump it water will leak out around ur cap it can be a bit annoying
