Submitted 2500 review by Rocky:(WaterZero)


CPS 2500 This is probabally the only soaker I would cherish. All my other soakers are all beaten up, written on and all that other stuff. My new CPS 2500 allways looks like it just came out of the box-In pristine condition. If you ever buy this gun, you'll understand. The CPS 2500 is supposed to be a succesor to the CPS 2500. Larami said so anyway its in there faq section. This is there response to a question someone asked them ( And oh yes. I did not ask Larami if I could use this. So I made a poem for them.) A CPS 1-3-5 is red, An XP 310 is blue, I don't own Larami, So please don't sue. Now to the Question... Why did you stop making the CPS 2000? And the answer... We stopped making the CPS 2000 after the CPS 2500 was made. There basically the same, Just that the CPS 2500 has 4 nozzles and the 2500 has different colors. Note: the part where I said the CPS 2500 has 4 nozzles is not a typo I am not trying to put the CPS 2500 as a bad gun, but a sucessor? Yeah right! The 2500 is no where near the capabillatie as the 2000! That is all the bad things about the 2500. The rest is all good. ( and maybe has 1 or 2 bad things from now on.) The CPS 2500 has three (!) nozzles. They are rated as 5x, 10x, and 20x. 5x packs a punch and is good on conservation. 10x is good for everyday fights. 20x is the ultimate drenching tool. The 2500 is a good gun. It is powerful but has 1 major flaw-a small resivor. Sure, 3 litres sounds like a lot, but when you are a trigger happy person ( or someone who fights on 20x all the time) but the shots eat up that water like popcorn! Overall, the 2500 is a good gun I recommend buying it. ~ Rocky (Water Zero) Please reply to: aquazero05@hotmail.com


Submited Review by J Maul



I bought my CPS 2500 in 1998 for $30. Its now 2001 and its still the farthest reaching Cannon Ive seen. I tested it against the MonsterX just yesterday and the 2500 slammed it in every category. There are 3 different nozzels. The 5X 10X and the 20X. The distance on each is very good. THe 5x and the 10x reach approx. 27 feet. The 20x gets near 25. the 20X is impressive. If your within ten feet of someone, you can soak the heck out of them. Its like getting hit with a short burst of a garden hose. only problem is its a one shot deal. The 5x is obviously good for conserving water, but feels as if there is too much pressure behind it. The 10x feels much better. I can generally get around 3 really good shots out of one pump on 10x. The water tank is another good quality on this cannon. It sits on the very back, and is easily refillable if your using the strap. You would think that all the weight in the back would make it unbalanced. Maybe if your a 4 foot kid, but not if your a bigger guy. Im 6'1 and have absolutly no problem running at full speed after someone. Probably the absolute best thing about the 2500 is the slender design it has. The neck is real thin. This allows you much more comfort when either running, or just standing around. The first thing I noticed after getting a Monster X, was that it didnt fit comfortably against my body. All that stupid cosmetic junk just got in the way. And if your going to be standing around for awhile waiting for the battle to start, it DOES make a difference. Carrying around the 2500 all day in that environment is no problem. The MonsterX though, different story. You're basically reaching around it. The pressure gauge is nice to have also, and mine still works great. I've read reports from on other sights complaining about the pump. The Moster X is way smoother in that respect, but the 2500 is still not in any way difficult. takes about 25-27 pumps to fill it. Another cool thing you can do with your guns, is paint over the stupid colors with model spray paint. The CPS 2500 lookes real dumb with its orange ends and white body. Some paint fixed that problem and now it looks real mean. Take some newspaper and masking tape, and cover up all the cool parts that you still want to keep. Then hang it with some of your dads good rope from a branch in a tree. Now, if you've never spraypainted before (hard to believe as that may seem) your not going to want to paint it all in one session. If you just pile that paint on in one sitting, its gonna chip like hell. Just do one light coat and then let it sit for about 30 minutes. Then do it again. After its done, take it down and hang it up to dry overnight in the laundry room. Also, dont forget to take down the painted up rope and put it back. Getting paint to dry on smooth plastic is harder than you think. Next morning run like lightning downstairs and SLOWLY peel off the tape. Yr gun should now look WAY cooler, if your artistically inclined what-so-ever. I have painted right over the nozzel selector and then just twisted it loose the next day. You'll find that some of the more oily plastic will chip easily, but the dryer stuff will look awesome. The paint *will* chip and come off in spots, so dont get all balled up trying to keep it immaculate. Remember, its supposed to be fun. Warning to all dumb kids. If your a dumb kid please dont paint your gun all black. Remember, cops WILL shoot you if they think they're life is in danger. Keep at least part of it some florescent color. Alright, kinda got off track there. THe CPS 2500 is an awesome cannon, and if you0r lucky enough to have one, dont waste your money on a monster class. J MAUL
