Default First Super Soaker

My first gun was an XP 65 I got for my sixth birthday that came with a free Power Soaker II. What were your first Super Soakers?

Sorry, but this is kind of an over-used topic, but oh well.


Mine was a CPS 1500, I got mine this year, it is now modified.

Mine was some backpack gun. I have no idea what it was. It wasn't cps it was a piston of some sort. Similar looking to the ZX Yellowjacket.

My first was actually a SS50 and a SS100, but for clarities sake a SS 100. I was what... 5 or 6 when I first handled it? Thats when I truly became fascinated with them.

XP 70. I dropped it off the top of the swing set and cracked the PC. I got a CPS 1000 as a replacement.
