What was your first water gun?
Mine was some XP/Classic look-alike, but it was a good little gun. The reservoir was mounted like an SS 50 and the range was ok. Evidently a rare model, for I could recognize one on sight, yet never have seen that type of gun since. Mind you, this was back in like 1997 and I was merely 8. :rolleyes:

The first working gun I had was my trusty XP 310. I still have it, but it is slightly modded. My friend gave me his SS 60 (just remembered this), but I broke it a week later and threw it away.
Lol, I remember going to his house, and he had old original SS soakers. They were all broken somewhat, but he kept them anyway. He had a busted up SS 100, but other than that, I can't remember what he had. For a going away gift (he moved to Washington) I got him a CPS 1200. Why I didn't get myself that then, I don't know. I wish I could go back in time and get myself one too. :P

I think my first were two Strom 1200's. One broke before I found Soakerdom, so I just threw it away. The second one broke, but I still have it. The pump shaft snapped (it's a tracked pump, too), and I have glued it a few times but it keeps breaking, even with sanding. Next time my dad buys some epoxy I'll use some of it.

The first water gun I got was a wierd noise making one. It wasn't brandname and was one of those piston ones. Then later though I got another piston (probably Wing-Sang) and my first brand-name water gun was a FF (now mod tester).
EDIT: spelling

My first water gun was a wierd supercharge gun. It was purple and had a massive stream. I used it to kill bees for fun and have water wars with my brother, who had the exact same gun. But then both of our guns broke... My first brand name was a Max-D 5000, which i am currently Check Valve Freezing (making it into a Max-P 5000) and is getting its firing mechanism strengthened
