I just added extra balloons to my CPS 10k to make the total 60 or so... Well when ever I pump it up and shoot, nothing happened. So I opened it up and the presurized chamber where I K-modded (whatever it's called) and it blew off and water went everywhere (like a water balloon). I then took it an tryed it over and over and every time the presurize chamber thingy blew off and the water went everywhere. Should I glue it into place, or did I do something wrong in the chamber thingy place? Little help please!

Obviously the PC is moving out. You could glue it on. You also could take 10 balloons off. Take off about 5 and then test it. It might be that 55 will still work, but 60 won't. Just test some stuff.

I now am considering on my 2100 making the PC screw into the trigger valve. I could easily make such a configuration from PVC and the existing parts. I think if I get another CPS 2100 I will try that.

thanks, I'll try it. The PC is the black thing right or is it the purple ball thing (on a CPS 1000)

Well, both can be called the PC. When it comes to refering to both generally the black one is called the PCor CPS bladder. The purple thing in the case of the CPS 1000 is the PC case.

Thanks for the help, I'll try it. I hope and pray it works...

That's odd-with my first 21000 that happened once, but only because it was tested out of the casing. If you test the gun when its back together, the pc is held in place by the casing and cannot blow off. If yours was coming off and you are testing the gun fully put back together then you should glue the pc. Make sure you have done what you want with the pc as that would be permanent.

That's exactly what I was thinking Dux! But I was a little to late. It was disassembled on my desk, and some friends came over and wanted to have a squirt gun fight. I told them to wait 15 minutes so I could fix my gun quik and have them set everything up. What I did was I took all 40 I attached off when it hit me! That really really pissed me off. So it isn't as great as it once was, because before I had 20 but it still has an extra five feet, which isn't bad I guess. I doubt I'm going to get in there and put them back, because stuff was starting to break in it. I didn't want to risk it breaking.

I have a CPS 12000 that has 61 balloons on and I had to replace the white thing that pulls the trigger back, with that kind of pressure, it breaks easy. So I went and found a gate hinge that fits perfect, then I bent and drilled so it looked very close to the original. Now, that steel will not break now.
