Thanks for the info, RacerSoaker. I called them, but the only ones they have now are 2 Big Troubles. They also don't ship things out, so it wouldn't really matter anyway, but like I said, I'm trying to follow any lead that I have.

argh! everyone keeps talking about the big trouble like it's XPBackfire-esque but it's an awesome gun!

Neobird, I think you were referring to my post when you said this. Actually, I didn't mean to denegrate the Big Trouble with what I said. I merely meant that I wasn't personally interested in it. I've read the stats and from what I gather, I'd rather use a non-backpack weapon that has similar stats. Also, the impression I get is that it's a "little kid" type backback weapon (take a look at the picture on the box).

Anyway, I'm just getting back into soakers after not using them for about ten years, so I'm trying to figure out what's worth getting and not really worth it.

If you can find any older CPS soaker, BUY IT.

it's not a "little kid" gun at all, I should take a pic of me shooting it sometime - the largest nozzle kicks quite a bit. and the shot time is incredible - I daresay that gun is better than the zook under some circumstances.

The Big Trouble is underrated because it always is compared to the superior PowerPak. That is like comparing a CPS 2500 to a CPS 2000, they are related, but one is toned down a bit. Still good guns.

only sometimes, like up in your face. I own both.
