It doesn't seem like much, but it may very be my first actual homemade. I was thinking of getting a 2L pop bottle and making that into a backpack. After that, get two tops of squirt bottles (doesn't seem like much) and make their intake tubes longer, Put holes in the backpack, insert the intake tubes and Epoxy it shut. duct tape the two squirt bottle heads together. two squirt bottle heads taped together is twice the water shot (and each one gets approx. 2L of water each). If there was a way to mod squirt bottle heads, I would. The small output also means it lasts long. If used with a main weapon (like a CPS 4100, 2100, etc.), this could be a decent backup. The backpack is easy to fill (simply unscrew the cap of one of the bottles) and this seems easy to make. May not be very exciting to you guys, but if I made two, it could almost be good enough to go against an XP 310. Perfect for fighting your way to a filling station.

It's like a trigger to a Windex bottle. If there was a way to mod this, I would.

I feel kinda ridiculous saying this, but, you could drill the nozzle.

You could go and buy a larger nozzled bottle, they usually sell some at Wal*Mart with nozzles like 2mm in diameter. I was going to pick up up a few but I didn't have the money.

I'm going to pick two up, make a backpack, and hook both up to the backpack.
