Does it have a lot of kick-back while shooting? it sounds like it

"a lot" is 2 words stupid!

Also what is the "x" of the gun nozzle? :huh:

blaze · 05-09-2004, 05:14 PM

according to my measuring of my CPS 4100 nozzles, 1/4'' is about 8.5 or 9x.

MilkMan · 05-09-2004, 05:15 PM

When I said that, you misunderstood me. I meant I was wondering what the x was of his gun. Thanks though because I was kinda wondering that anyway.

wut do you mean by "the x"?

Ben · 05-09-2004, 06:05 PM

He means the output in x. I haven't tested it yet, the next time I'll be able to is Tuesday.

you can't measure x by nozzle size alone, output is what's counted.

blaze · 05-09-2004, 10:10 PM

so is that why axua nexus said the cps 4100's 8.5x is more like 10x on other guns? or what?

The ratings on the box arnt quite as accurate. I believe the boys down at tech created a formula for Output and nozzle width to figure out the "true" "X".

blaze · 05-09-2004, 11:12 PM

so it is pretty much a 10x?

Hehe, thats the power of a homemade? I gotta build me one of those. Im a future engineer, it should not be too hard.

Neuro · 05-10-2004, 08:28 AM

output in x = your soaker's output / xp 70's output

Veteran · 05-10-2004, 10:05 PM

It has a backpack, right? Are the tanks on the top of the gun the pressure tanks?

BlueSmudge · 05-11-2004, 12:07 AM

it looks fairly simple. I'm not to good at homemades. I have never tried one, but that looks simple. Besides that fact that I have no ideah what you have for your pressure tanks. Is that just like 2" PVC with a cap er something. Can you get a pict with the backpack also? I wanna see the entire lay out.

Ben · 05-11-2004, 04:51 AM

Blaze, I've said I haven't taken the output yet, which also was said was the x. I don't know the x year, but for 1/4" it's probably over 10X and for 3/8" probably over 17X. Riot blast must be at least 30X.

Yes it has a backpack. and yes those are pressure chambers. I don't think they could be anything else. I'll try to get a picture of the whole gun this afternoon.

The pressure chambers are made out of 4" of 3" ID PVC, a 3" endcap, a 3" to 2" coupler and a 2" to 3/4" couple.
