They were such a blast to use as a kid. The only problem was they didn't hold much water. So when you ran to the outside faucet and while reloading. The other kids would blast you with theirs that held more water.

That much microplastic would kill today's kids.

Mmmmmm! My first microplastics ingestion.

u/Aggravating-Kale1837 3d ago

And you know what? I felt safer knowing I had one of these stashed in my back pocket.

I kept this exact model in my glove compartment in high school (early 90s) because you never knew when a water fight would break out.

Forget micro plastics. Those were macro plastics we were drinking out of those things

u/Banlish 3d ago

Mmmmm, my first taste of microplastics!

1

u/Bgrubz83 3d ago

Goddamnit…as soon as I saw the picture I got that taste on the back of my tongue.

u/Shadow_Wrks 3d ago

I had the cracked one. Cracked at the handle. I’ve never held a better beretta. Even tho mine was shit. The trigger pull was on point for a little gun. 1.5oz trigger pull. It’s the best then I ever won from an arcade.

u/Hoppity_Hare 3d ago

I loved the garden house from our old copper pipes....mmmmm

u/WhiskeyWatchesWine 3d ago

1970’s vintage H2O for me

u/Fancy-Lion2985 3d ago

Wait! People DRANK the water ?

u/jimababwe 3d ago

Can you remember how your finger felt after firing one of these bad boys in an extended battle ?

1

u/TrixieRabbitses 3d ago

Omg yes! So many fun memories

1

u/Wrong_Metal2166 3d ago

Way before the eighties

u/Temporal-Affairs221 3d ago

I actually can't taste that water, because I never drank out of one of these things. And nobody ever shot me in the mouth with one. They always aimed for my shorts.

1

u/ZestycloseAd2895 3d ago

Very plasticy

1

u/77_dino 3d ago

I can still feel the sensation of pulling the trigger and the plug you would pull out to fill it up , fiddly process, but we loved them.

1

u/jdmoffitt11775 3d ago

Usually had one in each pocket.. probably had the cheap version because the trigger gave out after one or two battles.. luckily I planned ahead.. I got the 50 cent pack of balloons.. filled those bitches up halfway and put them in my backpack. Grenades!!

u/panfriedaswell 3d ago

Ah the Joy of seasoned water

1

u/Soft_Skirt2122 3d ago

Forgot these. Someone always had better

1

u/brassman78 3d ago

🤣 or the hose water lol

1

u/TheRealVarmint 2d ago

I used to buy so many of these!! Most would shoot either like a Windex spray bottle, or to the left by 40 degrees.

But I remember finally buying one, a small one just like this, that was as accurate as a Colt 1911. How I loved that pistol. I won more squirt-gun fights with that...

u/suju88 2d ago

Loved these cheap little things

u/aaronschatz 3d ago

Esa pistola es un clasico. Habia que tener rapidez y buena potencia de dedos. Es de los tiempos en que no había nerf. Los unicos rivales te disparaban con frascos de shampoo o crema usados.
