If there was any company that made high quality water guns recently, believe me, it would be plastered on a lot of pages. Buzz Bee Toys and Hasbro are the only companies making anything decent. The Water Warriors Orca, Water Warriors Tigershark, Super Soaker Arctic Blast, Soaker Soaker Flash Flood, and Super Soaker Hydroblitz are the largest water guns today.
For answers to what happened and why, I would suggest reading the
Introduction and
this question in the FAQ. We've answered that question in both. I would also suggest in addition reading the entire FAQ... it will answer pretty much every basic question we could identify.
If you live in a relatively remote area, it would be best to order water guns off the internet.
Amazon.com sells water guns and they're often on sale.
Alternatively you can build your own as you said. I would suggest building your own if you are very concerned about the quality of your water gun because you will get unparalleled quality very easily.
