Ever felt... soggy? If you ever do again, this CPS 2700 pump-action mega-soaker could be the reason. It's 30 inches long and has a triple nozzle that delivers three different stream volumes (2 times, 5 times, and 10 times the strength of the XP series of Super Soakers). The water blasts from the soaker's huge 165-ounce faucet-filled tank. CPS stands for Constant Pressure System, and refers to how the gun can maintain the blastiness of its blast. Measuring 14 inches high and about 6 inches thick, its bulbous, almost organic design features yellow pressure tanks, a red body, purple detailing and a translucent purple cowl over the nozzle. The hyperfuturistic effect is enhanced by the pumping unit, which comes up at a rakish angle from under the trigger area instead of simply lying alongside the main body. It comes with a convenient, adjustable and removable shoulder strap. Fill with clean water, pump 20-25 times, and blast away! --Richard Farr
Just how did I come to this conclusion? Tests! I went out, bought each one of the Super Soaker line, and used repeated tests of time to fire, distance, time to pump, and "wetness" of target.
Then, we did a field test involving 30 people, and boy that was fun. While the Monster and Monster XL are the kings of wetness, thier time to fire, and time to pump are lower and higher respectivly. Not good in a battle with limited watersupply, or dependent on the cheap orange nosel refillers that come with the Monster guns.
As one reviewer pointed out, you do have to be both strong, and yet not too strong with the pump, as it harder to work and more fragile than I would like.

This water gun is awesome. Although it weighs a lot when completly filled it's very powerful.The nozzles are 2x 5x 10x and the nozzles are sort of annoying to change. The pump is not a slide pump so it a little harder to pump than slide ones. The pump is also easier to break because the plastic part sticks out.I think they should of made the grip part of the pump a little smaller for smaller hands. I noticed this because my hands are small even though I am very big for my age. I think this water gun is awesome just heavy when completly filled up.

The cps 2700 was a big disappointment, especially after its predecessor, the cps 2000 and 2500. The 2700's water supply is very good, but it's all down hill from there. Besides the funky coloring, the 2700 has a weak, easily broken stick pump rather than the attached pump of the 3200, Monsters, 2500, etc, and the pump is at a weird angle too. The nozzles, 2x, 5x and 10x are a step down from the older 2500's 5x, 10x and 20x, and the range is pitiful. Even the smaller 1700 has a good many feet over the 2700. Also, the nozzles are encased in some decorational purple flower thing that makes changing the nozzles difficult. If you're thinking about buying a 2700, I'd recommend going for the smaller 1700, or spending the extra few bucks for the 3200 or Monster.
