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. There's no fiddly trigger to pull as the Microburst 2 fires as you pump it, and 20 shots is plenty for a water gun with such a low overall tank capacity. We then took photos of how drenched they were and judged how much soaking power one shot from each water gun has.

Suitable for Kids 6+Ammo” Capacity: Though it limits portability, the volume or reservoir of a water gun will directly determine how much “ammo” it can store — a metric that will directly determine how long of a firefight one can enjoy before having to refill their weapon.

If you've got a water gun with a good range, this tactic will help you maximise your advantage. 3) Keep movingDespite having a fairly average capacity, we got an impressive 42 shots out of this water gun before it needed refilling, so you won't need to make regular trips to the tap to top it up.

This isn't your average water gun; it's precision-engineered to cause delightful carnage on the battlefield. Rather than shooting a single stream, the blaster fires a double-helix of H20 to drench anyone in front of you no matter how much they try and dodge. Bought for a present, received on time but there is a slight dent on the paw patrol character ear but great item for a child though as will be worse in no time.

The range of the Typhoon Thunder is slightly shorter, the capacity is significantly reduced, and in addition there's no handy refill door like there is on the Fast Fill. Capable of carrying a massive 55 fluid ounces (1.6 liters), this is the sort of weapon that'll strike fear into the heart of your opponents. Throw in a range of around 25 feet and you can guarantee that everyone else will be running for cover sharpish. It's a monster. It's all down to a spinning cylinder at the end of the barrel. Using the gun's pump will cause that cylinder to whirl, sending out twin jets of water that are almost guaranteed to hit something. That makes the Twister perfect for folks who charge headlong into action - it's capable of blasting multiple people at once. 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.
