Please put this in Trading.

I found this at KB too, it must be an exclusive. Yes, I think it is worth the money.
I don't check this forum anymore.

since it is a piston soaker, the main thing to determine weather to buy it would probably be the shot capacity of the piston chamber. I was very dissapointed at the vaporizer because of this.

The ZX-100 is like a stream machine with a backpack, not a piston gun. More of a piston rifle. Almost different classes if you ask me. It's like super soaker classics against stuff like the XP-150, or 310.

Get it for sure.

The Super soaker classic 300 was actually real good 1500ml pc, 190 ml of water per second...anyways, I guess it is a pretty cood soaker. the only thing that sucks about piston is that the shot isnt constant and its harder to aim.

Ah yes, that gun. I saw those on sale for pretty cheap at KB, and I heard they are at a great bargain for such a good piston based backpack. Ill head over to KBs and see if they have any left, this looks like a neat innovative blaster.

not very innovative at all actually. The design is so simple, and so effective. You all know how good stream machines are right? but you never use them cus you need to carry a bucket of water right? No picture that bucket of water sealed on your back and feeding into your weapon after every shot.

Moved to trading.

First, all of you (except for Jade and Racer) need to understand that the rules prohibit bad spelling, grammer and punctuation (that means no ....................... BS). They also say use capitalization correctly or don't use it at all. Get it right before I just ban you.

The design of the ZX-1000 is very innovative. It's one of the few of it's type, and from what I know the second backpack piston. The first was the related ZX-2000, from what I've heard they are about the same. The design has to use two check valves from what I know, one by the nozzle and one in the handle. Adding a backpack to a gun like that was a very good idea, turning it into a very deadly rapid fire gun.

Subotai from Waterbridge got one for about half that, he said in his review (it's in the archive on the Waterbridge forums) that it was worth about $15 at most.
