One thing if the 21k's 11k's and homemades are the true power of your teams arsenal, what's with all the 2500's. :cool:

Good question. That's like $500 on eBay were you to sell them. and aren't the 21k's better?

Someday Dux, I hope we'll get a chance meet on the field. I'd like to a chance to fight with/against professionals. That'd be awesome.

Then come to the Regional War, which we are hoping to be able to run this year. Last year it was canceled due to lack of interest, of all things. ???

As for the other questions, we only have 1 21K, 1 12K, 1 11K, 1 1100, and we haven't used the homemades in wars yet. Maybe my new one will see action. The 2500s are crucial to our arsenal, the heart of it. So are our other powerful CPS guns. The mods and homemades are the icing on an already huge cake. :p

I thought you had more 21k's. I guess I was wrong. That's a lot of 2500's! Don't the long ranges of the 21ks make the 2500 obselete?

I had 2 others, one was used for an 11K casing, and the other is undergoing a trigger valve replacement. I do have a 21K pc lying around also, having no casing for it.

The 2500 still has long range, ~50ft depending on how you measure it. 2500s also have more soaking power, which is one reason we still gladly use them. The 2500 is my favorite stock soaker, and one of my favorite designs. Speaking of obsolete, 21Ks are actually obsolete due to the advent of the 11K/others, if you think about it. :;):
