Stream Machine Water Gun Launcher - Single Barrel Water Blaster - Squirt Gun for Outdoor Games - Swimming Pool Toys (Colors Vary)

This works better then most of the wasp spray that I can find. I got fed up with trying to find a decent wasp spray, so I got this and some dawn ultra soap. Just mix a tablespoon of dawn per gallon of water in a bucket. It kills wasps very effectively, although it takes a few min for the wasps to die, they can't seem to fly after being sprayed. It is hard to be accurate with the gun and it is a bit bulky in tighter places, but it can easily spray a large blast of water far enough to be an excellent wasp killer. This is a decent water gun for adults and teens, but the power and capacity of the gun is dependent on your arm strength, so it would be difficult for younger children to use. It works like a big syringe you fill a bucket with water and you stick the end of the gun in the bucket and pull the two sections apart to suck in water, the faster you can do this the more water you get in the gun. Then to shoot you just slam the two section together as fast as you can, the range and power is dependent on how fast you press it together and on how much water is in the gun. I work at a warehouse lifting boxes all day so I have above average arm strength and I can spray it about 50 feet without much trouble. The advertised 70 feet might be possible, but I am afraid of breaking the gun, I can feel the plastic flex at 50 feet. The gun quality is OK for a toy and I believe that it will last a while as a wasp killer, but I would not expect it to last long under heavy long range use.

I order two of these for an upcoming annual canoe trip. I received them today and I took them out to the pool to test them out. Construction: Pretty solid, and it exceeded my expectations. Although I wouldn't call it "crush proof," the plastic was sturdier than I expected (considering the price). Other reviews I read reported leakage problems from the pistol grip end, so I filled mine up and tilted it into an upright position. After a few seconds, large water drops started dripping out at a pretty good rate -- but I expected something like that, and it's not something I'd really call a "leak." I don't plan on returning the two i bought based on this. Fill/Refill Rate: Very fast! Wow, I wasn't expecting it it to fill so quickly! It only takes about 2 seconds -- basically, it fills as fast as you can pull the plunger back. I'm pretty excited about this because it means that I can keep a relentless steam of water going during an attack. The fill rate definitely exceeds my expectations. Maximum Distance: 43 feet (about 14 yards). This distance more than meets my needs, but it's nowhere near the advertised "70 feet." The distance is dependent on the amount of pressure you can apply. I'm an adult male of average/above average upper body strength, and I could only achieve a distance of 43 feet (I literally measured it with a tape measure.) More for teens and adults: The packaging says it's for ages "5 and up," but I think it's more of a 12 and over item. It holds a lot of water and fulled loaded I think it would be too heavy for little kids. As I mentioned, its effective use is dependent on upper body strength, so again, I don't see little kids being able to shoot it more than a few feet. Lastly, this is the 36" model, so you need about a 4 foot arm span to pull the plunger all the way back. Overall impression: This is a great water gun for teens and adults at a very reasonable price! I only wish I had the ability to choose the colors.

Why did you pick this product vs others?: This was pricier than other option but very sturdy. I got the QF-2000 and it is a beast compared to other water cannons I bought for a family pool party. It survived a rough week of heavy usage where the other ones I bought fell apart. The handle holds water on its own so you have to let it drain before you bring it back into the house. Super fun highly recommend.

It was okay for what I needed it. You gotta be careful tho, cause it seems like it can break easily. Other than that, the range was what I needed and it's pretty easy to load. Doesn't weigh too much.

Simply, quite water gun that works well and shoots far.

Great water gun. Simple to use & holds a good amount of water. Most people use it for water fight fun but we discovered a new use for it. This year we had some mildew way up high on the side of our house. We did not need to have the whole house cleaned, we just needed to get rid of the mildew in those few areas. But we did not want to take the risk of climbing a ladder to do the cleaning. We use a product called Jomax which works great on mold & mildew. Results are almost instantaneous. Just spray it on & the mildew disappears almost immediately. So we had a cleaning product that worked and the last piece of the puzzle was finding a delivery system that would spray high enough on the house. And then the proverbial light bulb went on! A high powered water gun could spray high enough to get the cleaner on the mildew. We bought a smaller cheaper gun which worked OK but was a tedious job to keep refilling it. So after looking at various water guns on Amazon, I decided The Water Sports QF-2000 Stream Machine was the best choice. You mix a bucket of the cleaner then put the water gun in the bucket, draw back on the pistol grip & then spray the mildew cleaner on the house. We had to use a step stool for a little extra height in a couple of places but that sure beats climbing a big ladder.

Awesome. I can shoot it 60 feet no problem. I stronger person could shoot it further, but honestly the water doesn't stay together much further anyway.... it's mist by then.

Great fun

This water gun was the most effective gun on the river that day. We owned “Pirates of the bow river”! I was able to shoot further than my opponents which was a huge advantage and the volume of water this gun shoots out was overwhelming to our opponents. I’ll be buying a bunch more for next years water fight!

Great fun but doesn't shoot as far as they claim, perhaps half distance and just about 4-5 meters high. Still fun in the pool.

The picture shows a 36 inch barrel, the item I got had a 24 inch barrel. Charged the same price.

This was not able to reach the distances advertised. Returned for a full refund.
