This reminds me of the time when my brother introduced me to battery powered water guns. I had no idea such a thing existed (Super Soakers followed shortly after). It was no match for my puny squirt gun.
You got other more informative responses, but he definitely had a battery powered one first. The Super Soaker put it to shame though, in terms of volume of water delivered per unit of time.
I hate so much that Nerf bought them out just to kill the brand. Kids these days will never know what it's like to own a decent water gun. They only sell the puny squirt guns in stores now.
I had the xp105 and I figured out the nozzle at the end was removable in case it got clogged. I just left it off because instead of a small narrow stream that went far, I could drench someone with a shotgun like blast that shot about 8 ft. It emptied so fast but was worth it when I got close to someone.
There's a great book, How to Read Nancy, that will make you realize Bushmiller was a lot deeper than you thought. It spends a LOT of time on this one strip, and none of it is boring.

Those kids are no match for me and my electric kettle
Firehose with Legionella is a long-term strategy though
I had that once. Most miserable two weeks of my life.
And that's INCLUDING the two weeks I was hospitalized with a giant life threatening throat abscess.
Bro thought it was a six gun shootout. Little did he realize he was in the fucking Somme.
This is a poignant and solemn confrontation with the tragedy of the never ceasing escalation of gun violence in the USA. RIP.

battery powered water guns are older than super soakers???

I had a Super Soaker CPS 3000, with the Constant Pressure System, this was awesome. I soaked my enemies :-D

yea.. the first ones date back to the 1970s
Supersoakers were invented by an former NASA aerospace engineer, Lonnie Johnson, in 1989.
I had a blue uzi as a wee one.
Hahahaha! Nancy is going to choke him with the hose!
Or beat. Those old metal nozzles had some heft.
Bro's about to get shotgunned 😭

Never bring a trickle to a river fight.
That varmint could really draw.
The bully looks like a piglet. Well done Mr Bushmiller.
