...Sidearms?

I don't own anything worth mentioning (I.e. any good&#33 ;) but I am considering buying a Max-D 3000 or 4000 and maybe a 6000 so I don't have to bring my CPS 2000 into the small skirmishes the kids in my neighborhood like to start.

So, what do you own and use as a sidearm?

Usually, I have my 2700 working, and I use my 1000 as a sidearm, but since my 2700 currently in out for repairs, I use a ZX 1000 or a Storm 500, usually the ZX, because it's almost as powerful as the 1000, and if you pull hard enough, can get a range better than it.
If you want to know, the ZX 1000 is a cheap $5 water gun I got at KB Toys. It's like the Power Soaker, except it's got a backpack. It has like 20 SPT.

Hmm... that'd be great! I'll see if I can't find one. Does the ZX have a strap for the gun with it or will I have to make my own?

The ZX is so light you won't need one. It's got straps for the backpack, but the backpack is so small, I just put it on my arm.

The ZX will be just fine for a sidearm, then. It might even help me with my true goal: improving upon MiB's Deathwalker. I had planned to become a Deathwalker myself since I can carry all the equipment needed and still MOVE. I thought those Water Worm things would be good to sling over my neck as a last defense sort of weapon, but the ZX might do that job as well. I'd just need to find a space in one of the backpacks for the tank...

You talking about the ZX's tank? It's so small, you wouldn't want to put it in a backpack. It hold just as much water as the 2700, but the tank is rectangular.

I have 2 Monster XL, which I use for every arm. As a backup cannon I have a MonsterX strapped on my back. The weight is about 50 pounds on my upper body, which is not that bad. But running is no option.

See, 2 MXL's would be a bit much for me. I'd rather have a 1700 if I could get my hands on one. That way I could switch in and out of the grunt/HWO roles.

"He's just using the 1700. Go soak him."

"But what about the 2000..."

"Just do it!"

I will get a CPS 2100 during the next days. Also planning to make holsters instead of a strap for it, so I don't have to carry it around my neck. If I would not be into the heavy gunning thing, I would use 2 CPS 2100 as twin pistols. High mobility, compact and powerful.

A 2100 might be the kind of CPS sidearm I want. Really I want to find something with a good, long shot time to compliment the blast from my 2000. Maybe I should try to find a Splashzooka...

GET A SPLASHZOOKA! it needs no pumping, has 35 seconts strate holding down the triger shot time, and has great range! but you need a hose to refill because it needs a qfd witch gives it it's pressure [sorry for spelling, me can't spel]
trust me, I have one.
pm me about the historical documints, it has free full games, the legindairy makeshift arsonal with pics, and
many other fine things.

The 2100 is not a pistol.
Yes, but with holsters, they can be seen as very very big pistols. That reminds me of 2 magnums 45. I am refering pistols as handguns in the 2100 case.
