Today was a warm day and I had some spare time. So I did range tests on all of my elite heavy hitters.These where the results(tape measured even the distance):

CPS 10K : 59-62 feet (12X)
CPS 21K : 56-58 feet (12X)
CPS 2000 Mk.2 #1 : 59-62 feet (22X)
CPS 2000 Mk.2 #2 : 38-40 feet (22X)
CPS 2000 Mk.2 #3 : 56-58 feet (22X)
CPS 2500 : 45 feet (22X)
48-50 feet (10X)
48-50 feet (5x)

There was minimal wind when doing the tests.
The CPS K-Moded guns performed as expected. But one CPS 2000 Mk.2 reaching the 60 feet mark was fairly suprising. Also, one of my CPS 2000s Mk.2 performed like a standard CPS 2500 20X nozzle. So I assume that that one is a lemon. But even for a lemon, its acceptable. The third CPS 2000 did above average.
My biggest suprise was probably the CPS 2500 outperforming completly any CPS 2500 I had in the past reaching 45 feet with 20X and 50 feet with any other nozzle. So I got myself a freak CPS2500 here which is prity sweet.

So there you go. And to top it all of, here are some pictures:

Really neat. I'm sure that someone will eventually find one of these pictures and do their typical drool on the keyboard type thing as they did with ChrisReid's water gun collection.

I am wondering why CPS 2000 mk.2 #2 does not perform very well. Possibly you could open it up to find a potential problem? I believe it would be more likely that this CPS 2000 received more use over the years, but it surely wouldn't hurt.

Well, not all rubber bladders are going to be the same. I think having a poor Mk.2 is easily made up by have two superior ones--nobody will care if you have one collecting dust.

Nice comparisons--considering not all CPS soakers are the same, it's good to have many measurements on many guns.

The CPS2000 #2 was suprising since the outer frame was in almost new condition. CPS 2000 #3 was fairly beat up externaly, but the internals performed exelent. I tried to exchange the bladders on both models, but some genius super glued the frames to the trigger valve on CPS 2000 #3.
I have not opened CPS 2000 #2 yet.

Over the next days I might will post a Range Test #2 with all the Monsters. So some might want to look out for that to.
