I took a minute and looked, searched, and then browsed and found nothing. Could you post a direct link?

sammy sent me the link by email. Here it is: http://www.hobbytron.com/SuperBlaster30 ... erGun.html

This is not a CPS 2100. Note that it has a nozzle selector; no CPS 2100 has a nozzle selector. It's a knock-off and it unlikely to be as good a water gun as the CPS 2100.

The movie's funny, but yeah, that water gun isn't a CPS 2100. The 2100 doesn't have a nozzle selector, and it does have a tracked pump. Also the real 2100's trigger looks a bit different, and its colours are different.

In the movie, while the weapons don't look awful, the "Jackal's" gun clearly doesn't have the power of the real CPS 2100.

One interesting point - the ripoff has loops for a strap. No strap provided I presume, but that's one thing the CPS 2100 lacks.

Still, stick with the real deal. If you want a powerful gun at a sensible price, the largest Water Warriors do quite well.
