Get yourself a CPS 1000. You'll never regret it.

If Elliot were a young child in the 60s, chances are he's in his early sixties or mid fifties.

OMG, I am not in my nineties ! Just my late, um, eighties.

And for the record, back in the day, we didn't have any of those new-fangled super soakers. We threw rocks at each other. And petrified dinosaur feces. Those hurt !

We only dreamt of super soakers. That and radio. Yeah, radio would have been good when I was a kid. Telephones too. Ahhh, the good old days !

It's still winter where I live. :( but I'm back for at least a week now on the wiki! :D

You are *not* that old.

You're right, I'm not that old.  Chronologically I'm,  let's say,  over 40.  But developmentally, I'm 15 going on 16.  Maybe ?

Let's just say I remember when the Nerf Ball came out.  That and the moon landing was a really big deal that year.  And the new Nerf Football was HUGE when I was in grade school.

But dart blasters ?  Heck, I was married by the time the first Sharpshooter came out.   Mrs. Elliottw dodged a bullet on that one (no pun intended) 

Oof, that might be hard to find.

​​​​​​As far as I know, I can't find any CPS blasters or the Super Soaker 50, anywhere on eBay.

At least, not if you don't want to spend an arm and a leg.

I got lucky and found a CPS 1000, Super Soaker 50 and a MAX-D 5000 at a thrift store. I know that's a bit impractical, but I think there are plenty of alternatives to the newer Nerf ones which are meh at best. Buzz Bee has some pretty good ones as far as I know, and the pre-Nerf Super Soakers are usually pressurized ones, which in my opinion are the best kind.

I own a Super Soaker from the 90's but I broke the pressure gauge.
