I've recently read that denozzleing a gun with a nozzle selector can give it a higher output rating and more power. I was not to sure about denozzleing my XP 310 but, I did it any ways. I made sure not to lose any parts and then I filled up my XP 310 until the arrow in the power guage was pointing to the very red section and I heard a "squealing" sound. I then pulled the trigger just before the blast came out I felt a very small kickback from the gun. Then, the stream came out and I was surprised at how powerful it was. It soaked basically the entire area and could probally soak a human easily. Some bad things that I noticed was that the range of the gun was reduced by a few feet when I shot it. I also noticed that the shot time was greatly reduced. It emtied its dual pressure chambers very quickly. When I do a trigger pulse all the pressure is almost gone from the PC's. Overall denozzleing the XP 310 will give it much more power and when my battles start to get more intense I might unscrew the nozzle selector of my XP 310 and use it. I might try denozzleing my Max Infusion Overload soon and see how much better IT will preform. :soakon2: :soakon2: :soakon2:

This sort of thing can be done with pretty much any soaker with a multiple nozzle selector (well, not easily with the CPS1500/1700 and not really possible with the CPS1-3-5).

No nozzle -> poorer stream lamination + larger opening -> larger blast area, but range loss.

:cool:

I knew that already. I was just trying it out with my XP 310 to see its maximum potential. With a simple mod. :)

I'm thinking of denozzling my Max D 6000, but I don't know which nozzle is the most useless, because so far I don't want to drill any out.

I did not drill out a nozzle selection in the XP 310's nozzle selector but, just simply unscrewed the nozzle selector and then put it back on again.

i did the same, unscrewing takes WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY too l;ong, just drill one of the medium sized ones
a true sniper will wait any length necessary to get a kill, even if his freinds go and have 2 water wars in the meantime...without him...

Right after I read this I denozzled my Max-D 6000 and I do not recommend doing it. Yes, the stream is bigger, but it lasts for like 2 seconds and decreases range by a LOT. If you freeze the check valve, it might make it shoot farther, but I haven't frooze the check valve so I don't know. :)
