In the hope that the sun returns i'm after something a bit larger for the inevitable water fights with the kids (for defense purposes only of course). At the moment we all have some water pistols that were great when they were small as they were easy to use and don't soak them too much but now they're moving on to larger things (the pump type ones that you suck water up with) i'm starting to feel a bit out gunned!
It's going to be fairly close quarters combat so i don't want anything too big but ideally i want something that gives a few good soakings between refills. What can you recommend?

Available from Aldi on Thursday.
Back in our water-fight days, I brought a CPS-2000 back from the States. It could deliver two pints a second (an elephant gun, ahem), though with a six pint reservoir it wasn't much use without a backup sidearm.

A simple air-powered water gun I built with PVC and a 2-liter bottle. You hook it up to the hose to fill it, and that traps air inside, pressurizing it like a super soaker, but no pumping required.
I have two refillable water fire extinguishers, full em up, stick them on my compressor to 150 psi then give my kids a good soaking!
