Default Bad ass water guns

Got a friend's kid's bday to attend sat. and he's wants a water gun. Any ideas on a bad ass one? I would spend up to about $40 if it's worth it. And something a local store (walmart, etc.) would be best cause I don't have time to order one.

I would guess Super Soakers are still the ones to get but I have not bought kids toys in a while.

Dude, I saw this commercial the other day for one that came with a backpack (You put the water and their is an automated pump inside) and this thing looked bad ass The commercial portrayed it to be like a water gun that shot like a machine gun. This little 5 yr old kid was messing up all the older kids in the commercial

Cant seem to remember the name of the product though

Id imagine you could find it in a walmart.. I want to get one for my daughter but she is still a little too young for a water gun IMO.

That does sound BA! I'll do some searching and see what I can find. I didn't even think about Toys r us. I saw this one too. It's motorized.

I remember the backpack ones from years ago. It was like having dual 2-liters on your back and a nozzle. You can only get them at swap meets tho

Sorry, I don't live in Compton so we don't have swap meets here. We do however have these things call "flea markets".
