One of the most outclassed weapons, but by far the most Sacred... The Classic 50 (Or "Power Drencher" before 1991) was the first Super Soaker ever released. Yellow with a green tank, it brought fear to water warriors everywhere in the time of the simple water gun. With each pump of this weapon, another fighter wets his/her pants...
This was the standard weapon in use in the early days of the Super Soaker wars. Very few were lucky enough to afford a larger gun... Also it's relatively cheap price made it appealing to many starting in the field, and it's high power for the time would not let their owner down. The 50 was the lowest gun in the Classics to make any pump-trigger gun look wimpy.
This Gun, although nice to have, is not at all very good for the modern water war fields as it used to be. It should be considered a collectors item or a last resort only.

There were 4 Versions of this Gun...

Power Drencher
The First Air Pressure WaterGun - 1988
Classic 50
Renamed in 1990 with the Release of CS-30 and CS-100

Now that the Super Soaker has changed the water world, the Geriatric Super Soaker 50 has been rereleased several times, as a Smaller Classic Series 50 gun, and as a Chromed Silver 10th Anniversary 50...
...Both Shown Below...
Classic Series Edition
10th Anniversary Edition

Also, to spread rumours around, the Silver Edition was not the only special edition for the 10th anniversary. There is word that employees within the Larami hierarcy recived "Golden" editions of the Classic 50, some say they're even Numbered... But who knows... It IS just a rumour.


This, Super Soaker 100 (As it is labeled), is the European Edition of what is known as the Classic 50.
