Classification: CPS | Type: LIGHT FIELD GUN

Description: The CPS1000 is a potent, mid-sized water blaster, providing excellent water power for its relatively small size (especially when compared to blasters like the Monster XL). The general construction of the CPS1000 is strong, able to take a good deal of punishment without fear of breaking the blaster. For ease of carrying and filling, the CPS1000 has both a shoulder strap and a built-in handle. The reservoir cap easily screws on and off plus it has an attached tether/anchor to prevent its loss. Its 5x-rated aperture unleashes a powerful, long-range stream from its mid-sized CPS pressure chamber. Pumping up the firing chamber does take a fair number of pumps to fill, but the blaster is operational after only a few. This, together with its 2.3L water reservoir, makes the CPS1000 a formidable weapon on the water war front.
The CPS1000 is a great all-purpose blaster, perfect for use as a primary blaster. It can also be used as a "heavier"-type backup weapon if one is using a larger CPS model as a main weapon.

Pros: Mid-sized, light, easy to carry especially thanks to its shoulder strap. For its size, it packs excellent power and stream size. It also does not take too much effort to pump up the firing chamber.

Cons: As with most of the CPS line, one can quickly empty the tank if being a little overzealous with the trigger. One thing to be careful of is the pumping mechanism which extends from the front of the blaster. This pump, though it appears to be fairly sturdy, should not be left extended for longer periods of time to reduce the chance of falling on it and breaking it, leaving the blaster useless.

The CPS-1000 is an excellent Super Soaker. It may seem small, but is indeed very powerful. This is a very versatile water blaster.

The CPS-1000 is the smallest blasterin the CPS line. However, appearances are sometimes deceiving. This little blaster packs a lot of punch. When I first got it, I expected it to be another smaller blaster. When I filled it up though, I was surprised at the power. So was my unfortunate friend who fought me with my XP-110.

This blaster is small and light which makes it easy to run or climb with. The shoulder strap makes it easy to carry.

The CPS-1000 blows out a 5x rated blast from its decent sized CPS pressure chamber. Unfortunately, the water supply is limited which means you will be refilling a lot.

PROs: Small, light. Shoulder strap makes it easy to carry. Excellent power for its size.

CONs: Low water supply.
