Ah, there are lots of Super Soakers there, eg the XP 310 dead center in the last photo. Guns like that will outrange the AB's flood nozzle, but not the stream.

A 'squirt gun' usually refers to the type of water pistol that has no pump or pressurisation, you just pull the trigger and it shoots a bit of water not very far. They can usually be recognised by having a round rod behind the trigger. Like this: http://www.sz-wholesale.com/uploadFi...28083820s..jpg

Toys R Us in the UK is rather poor for water weapons. They have the Transformers gun, which is not particularly good, and the Spiderman branded Helix, which is worse. They also have a load of 'Stats Splash' ones, which are rebranded Water Warriors, but the low-end models.
Of course, Israel is a hotter country, so water guns might be easier to get hold of over there.

In my opinion the arctic blast is really good. From around 10 feet away the entire back of my shirt was drenched completely. Although mine des have a collosus and a pc expansion.

Apparently they are here as well. They only had SS/WW accessories, plus some cheapo squirt guns... what a huge disappointment that was. Gotta keep looking I guess.

In other news, I gave the mighty CPS 2000 to someone who can supposedly fix anything, we'll see what he can do about it.

Colossus - increases the power of CPS water guns with cylindrical bladders
Pressure chamber expansion - allows bladders to expand more and store more water

Hopefully your friend won't run into any problems like rusted screws with the CPS 2000. There are ways to get around those, but they usually involved using a drill with the right drill bit or just drilling through the hole.

If you haven't already, I'd point your friend towards some guides here to give them an idea of what to expect. Most people aren't immediately familiar with the design of a water gun so some education helps a lot.
