Accuracy. Firing an inaccurate water gun isn’t much fun. To find an accurate water gun, look for a narrow stream with high velocity. During testing we rate Super Soakers and other water-spewing weaponry on build quality, water capacity, features and range, which we feel are the most important elements to a good water gun. Speed and agility are important in water fights, so you'll want to avoid being weighed down by heavy, absorbent clothing. Team Magnus Incog Water Guns 1,200cc: This gun had one of my favorite looks. It holds a lot of water because it's basically all capacity and no fluff. It doesn't shoot very far in comparison to our other tested units, but it'll keep you in the game for a while, taking about 1 minute, 15 seconds to empty -- even constantly shooting.

The vast majority tend to fall around the mid-30s, and the bare minimum range we'd recommend is 10 feet unless you're opting for power (as is the case with the Super Soaker Soakzooka) or sheer soaking capability. How much does the most powerful water gun cost? Water tank capacity. Kids don’t want to run out of ammunition before their opponents. Choose a water tank that will outlast everyone else. Typically, you want a tank with at least 25-ounce (739 mL) capacity. Otherwise, you will have to reload multiple times during a water battle. What kid wouldn’t love the combination of a water gun and zombies? The Zombie Strike Revenge Infector is a well-made gun and is easy to use. It gives kids a fun imaginative scenario to use while having a water fight.We then fired each water gun from a couple of metres away, ensuring that the whole shot hit the tester's overalls. We filled each water gun, pumped it up to full power if required, and then fired them several times from a few different angles. Then we refilled each gun and counted how many times you could fire it before the tank would need refilling. This tactic can be used to your advantage when your enemies run out of water, too. If you're close to the refill station when they need to come in to load up, they'll be left wide open for you to give them a good soaking without any risk of return fire. 2) Aim high You'll need to park yourself in or near water to get much use out of these, but that makes them great for pools or a trip to the lake. If you're building your water gun battle arsenal, think of this as the closer range maximum carnage placeholder.

You only fire once between each refill, so you've got to make it count, but that one shot comes with plenty of range and firepower. A distance of 9.6 metres made this the winner of our range test, and if you're unfortunate enough to get caught in the fire of this blaster you're sure to get soaked. This is because once it leaves the gun the water starts to drop, so aiming it slightly higher will give the water a chance to cover more ground before it falls. We measured the capacity of each water gun by filling the water tank up to maximum and then pouring it out into a container on a set of scales that told us how many millilitres of water were inside. After a lot of research, we've discovered that the Stream Machine TL 750 might just have the longest range of all the water guns we've looked at - more specifically, it can fire "up to 70 feet", which is a whole lot more than the majority of the competition. Want a water gun that can shoot the farthest? Take a look at the Stream Machine. Make the most of summer with our range of water blasters and super soakers. Ideal for ages 3 and up, they're great for hours of water-blasting fun. Treat your little water warrior and enjoy watching them play in the garden.

Although Temi boasts the smallest water capacity of all units tested, you can dump that capacity in under 2 seconds, resulting in a soak factor just shy of 300. The second place unit, a Super Soaker model, came in with a soak factor of 107. You'll have to make those shots count, however, as despite having a capacity of more than a litre we only fired it seven times before it needed refilling. This may be partly due to how much water is wasted during pumping, as it dribbled a lot of water out of the end of the barrel when we were pumping it up.
