i would not want to be in a water gun fight against you
now you just need a really big one in the back of a truck like what the swat uses

thanks you captain obvious! lol...

very nice! I like it, looks good.
you should add a pump of some sort fixed to the side, so you pump it like a regular squirt gun.

i curious if it actually shoots a good stream of water or if it would be more like a a mist cloud from the air prssure mixed with the water.

Wel as long as you didnt hold it upside down then you should get a nice constant stream of water. As it was used to put out fires before I would assume that it would have to put out a concentrated stream and since all he did was add a constant air source I would assume that nothing would change.
