Well, it seems that this is the worst summer for me. First of all, no place has any Flash Floods or anything that is remotly practical for warfare. Toys"R"us has left over Triple A's, copied 1500s , and sheild blasters. Wal-mart has nothing. The real Canadain super stores has repackaged Helix's :bmhelix:, and if I buy online it's like $45.00 CAN including shipping. Worst part is, my parents think soakers are just one time use toys. And think spending $30 bucks of my cash is a waste. I do have a CPS 4100 but, a bit too heavy. Is anyone else having as much trouble this summer?
Rant to be continued...........

From my own shopping experiences these days, there's almost nothing worth while left on store shelvings in my area. Thankfully I went shopping early on in the season. Since it's been so hot, I think water toys have been selling well.

Well, I did see some FF in The real Canadian super store in early July. But for some reason i never felt like grabbing it off the selves, now I've missed my chance :'(
Note to self: Never think water warfare is boring, or you will lose your chances of finding a decent water gun. :p

Dude, you have a CPS 4100. The 4100 is much better than anything else out right now. Its not really that heavy at all, and the power is enough to justify any limitations in speed.

Yeah, I know that. But need I want a good sized light rifle to try out some modding. And plus I really like the Flash Flood for some reason. Hopefully they're be a better one next year. What's the best time to get a water gun when there's still plenty in stock?

Early Spring, the guns are on shelves by then, but most think it is too early to buy water guns, so plenty are available.

Try eBay. There are tons of them right now. If you look around carefully you can probably get one for a reasonable price. I payed for mine in a store, no I wish I got it off eBay because the prices are low. If you really want one so badly then I suggest you order it somewhere online or go on eBay.

How can you know you like it before you have it? The FF is nothing compared to a 4100. But maybe by next year they'll have a new gun or two out already.

Well, it seems my parents won't let me buy anything that's over $25.00. And with only 2 weapons in my armory, well, you know...(weapons get old, start retiring, and go to the retirment home a.k.a the Waste Management). Not to mention eBay is not an opition.
