Why do you list CPS 1500 and 1700... Aren't they the same?

Actually, they're identical in every way apart from their colours. The CPS 1700 is just a perfected final variant of the CPS 1500, and is less prone to faults such as the metal gauze filter inside the nozzle coming loose, which was apparently a problem that earlier version(s) of the 1500 suffered. So apart from their colours, and the faults of an earlier released version of the 1500, they are exactly the same soaker, with the same nozzle settings, range, capacity and everything else.
Err, Falcon? One is heavy, two? How do you expect to manage two at a time?
I shouldn't have too much trouble handling two, because apparently the gun itself (not including the backpack) is very light. the backpacks combined will weigh over 16 kilograms (ouch!) but I wouldn't use them all the time, only when I need to scare my enemies away or need serious firepower. I will often lend one to teammates. (Exodus)

I know they are remakes of the same gun, but the poll called for a listing of both because they are different guns dispite the simmilarity.

You let one hang while you pump the other.

That's true, they are still called different names, like you wouldn't call someone's CPS 1700 a 1500, but I think they should have been listed as CPS 1500/1700 rather than two different choices.
I still don't know how you people pump dual CPS 3200s.
Like Veteran said, it's quite easy to pump dual CPS weapons if you let them hang by the strap. It can get quite unwieldly to pump two soakers in action-packed battes, though, so I wouldn't take dual CPS soakers if I was travelling alone without backup.

Well I'd take my CPS 4100 but only because I have no better weaponry (Good CPS guns are just too hard to come by in the UK)
