CSG Guns

Post by NYwRiter94 » Thu Jun 18, 2009 6:11 am

Anyone know anything about them? My friend has a few X5s and I'm going to go test them tomorrow at his house. Doubt they're anything good.

Pictures:

The X5, which my friend owns, is too big to fit here, but just google image search CGS X5 and you'll find it. Pretty much, 1 to 5 means pistol to medium sized blaster.

Unfortunately, the triggers (and the lack of pumps) seem to prove that they're only squirt guns. That said, they look durable enough, and they may be useful in an assassins-type game.

hey silence, I looked up the x5 he's talking about, it seems to have a pump and real trigger, and it has a nozzle selector, but it might just be cosmetic. So the x5 might be worth trying

You're right, I should have checked.

Anybody else notice an uncanny resemblance between the CSG X5 and the Water Warriors Krypton?

Here's a site with them all

The X0 and X00 are bog standard squirt guns. I think the X1, X2 and X3 might be dual-nozzled (if that's what's meant by 'multiple shot'). The X4 and X5 say they're continuous stream, which means they're pressurised in some way, quite probably pressurised reservoir.

And yes, stylistically the X5 is a ripoff of the Krypton. But where the precharge button would be seems cosmetic only.
