UserID: 62 |  I cannot release too many details yet, this is highly classified info for the Forest Talons. While browsing the internet, we found old designs for a water blaster system, that was nearly Unbeatable. I am taking the plans of that system, and improving on them to make a Mk 2. The Mk2 will be able to stand up to the Mk1, but will have more force than an Air Pressure Homemade, but not as powerful as one. Expect me to post pics this weekend B) I feel that if a heavy weapons officer is to handle the big jobs, he should be used to the extent of his abilities....  |

UserID: 1 | I've seen most every homemade water gun on the internet, from my guesses it could be either the Ultimate Water Gun or one of MrPukeOnYourHead's. I honestly would NEVER take old plans and improve them unless it already was a strong design. I know the design of the most powerful gun that can be made, and if you've read the Tech Articles it's quite obvious. I know I've posted it before too... Quote:
You honestly have no way to say that, as the gun is not made yet (and you haven't seen an APH in action). Never make promises before the gun is made, you'll probably just end up disappointing people. Other than that, if you're making it air pressure remember to get pressure rated PVC. You don't want something blowing up in your face. And for safety, never exceed 75% of the ratings.[edit] Ignore this post, it's not a homemade

UserID: 97 | I bet its the "Ultimate Water Gun". I've seen that before, and have though of ways of making the head mounted nozzle into a pistol. It would be good, but not too good.

UserID: 1 | It's not a homemade, it's more of a system or method of operation. I talked to him on AIM about it. I know some of you people will say the idea is obvious, and it is many times, it's just not very popular yet.

UserID: 77 | I might use some system like that for next year, I have yet to see whether I have the necessary equipment.

UserID: 99 | That UWG doesn't look like anything really special, its more fancy than practical with the helmet and all... :P That website makes it look like nobody has ever gone above 100PSI before, or that its like a firehose or something. Hey, that's funny.. Ive done bottle rockets at over 140PSI before, and a supersoaker at 130 PSI once before. 3L of water in about 1.5 seconds - so it wasn't practical either, I just don't have a big enough tank. It was a backpack style soaker, and the trigger/nozzle hit me in the forehead from kickback. I have no idea how far it shot, other than it was over 40 feet but wasnt a focused-sniper-type shot. Useless in a real battle... but it was fun, only did it once 'cause its not too safe, even plastic shrapnel from over 100PSI could kill... Anyways, good luck on your soaker, can't wait for pictures!
