Let me just say that when I saw this product on one of the Tech/Geek sites I frequent everyday, I just had to have one! Why? because it takes me back to my youth. I know they aren't the exact toys nor even the same company (Search Entertech Water Guns) but the principal is the same. Motorized Water Guns with working clips and "lock-n-load" feel to them.

With that said, I must say they take me right back. They remind me of the Entertech version. Even as an adult, I laughed so hard when the motor started pumping the water! All those memories came flooding back. Now that I have kids, I had to introduce the gun to the next generation. It's just as fun as it was before. My boys and I enjoyed it thoroughly. I ordered 2 more :)

Being an Engineer, I can't help but pick the flaws and figure out the weaknesses:

- There is no way it shoots 30ft. 15ft is really pushing it. Maybe I had stale batteries but I doubt it.
- The clip is NOT spill proof. No way can you throw the clip like in the ad movie clip. It is better than Entertech's but not spectacular.
- It pounds through the clip of water way way too fast. Should have at least had an extra clip or be allowed to buy extras.
- When you run dry, you can tell by the loud spring actuated drive noise. Thack Thack Thack!
- A small delay when you start from a fresh clip after going dry.
- This point is small but I wish they had more American/NATO guns. CAR-15, MP-5, G36

That's pretty much the flaws I can find with this product. What do I like about it?

- The size is perfect, you feel like you are holding a Spetnez (sp?) version of the AK.
- The clip is secure and held by positive engagement.
- The weight is nice and feels good for a kid/immature grown up like me :)

All in all, I had a blast this evening and can't wait for the next two units to arrive.

It's a very fun and easy to use gun. I like how it shoots separate streams of water making each shot an individual shot like a real gun. My two brothers and I love to play water wars with them. We received them on Easter and they are still in tact after much use from our friends as well. The way it loads is really cool too because you have to take the cartridge out and fill it with water. The cartridge never falls out on its own either. I'll say that it's the best water gun I've ever had and the best I will probably ever have. This brand beats the super soaker brand any day, too. My mom agrees.

I gave these to my 3 sons ages 11, 10, & 7 for Easter. Tons of boys ages 14 to 2 have played with these on a very regular basis. These guns have been dropped and dry fired. I didn't expect them to last a month. They have been a favorite at my house and have not broken yet. I would not hesitate to buy them again.

The range isnt that crash hot, but a couple of these are damn good fun on a hot day. Pretty durable, long battery life and a nifty design you're deffinitely getting your monies worth, especially in Australia where you're looking at $40+ for one of these

This water gun is epic i had a blast with it,the idea and feel of it makes it soo much fun,a few problems is that the range isnt too good and it comes with only one clip,if it came with two it would double the fun but i stil give it an outstanding ovation for those kids/teens who want to live out for a moment war this is a great tool(imagination required)

Perhaps I expected too much, but this gun is woefully underpowered for my purposes.
It functioned well, but I need more distance for hitting squirrels around my bird feeders
than the weak 15-20 feet provided. I returned it promptly, so I have no comment on its durability.
The transparent model was interesting to see in action.
