The
Liquidator
is a n over/under carbine as the SC Tripple Charge, the XP Tripple
Play, and
the Max D Secret Strike were before it. The weight is well
balanaced due to this design and makes weilding it single handedly
quite easy. It
makes a fairly good side arm or scouting weapon. It only holds
16.5 oz, and it uses it up pretty quickly, but side arms don't really
need to hold much water, nor do guns used for scouting. I
recomend scouts not to engage the enemy if at all possible, but if
engaged the Liquidator makes a good weapon. Its superior range
and power will get you through just about any tough situation long
enough to get away. I've faced smaller CPS weapons with this
blaster before, and it will compete as long as you have ammo.
The Liquidator's exterior plastic shell is very strong, and the design
is pretty durable, but the internals don't match. This is
because, and only because, it has a Max D nozzle. While Max D
nozzles do give a nice stream of water and arguably more range than
other nozzle designs they are also very finicky and break easily.
I haven't had a Liquidator break on me yet, but I am still very very
cautious about this gun because of the trigger/nozzle. A deadly
flaw on an otherwise flawless gun. That's pretty sad too since
almost every new soaker out there comes with Max D technology.
Update - although both of my Liquidators lasted me longer than any
other Max D I have owned they broke on my 2 years after this review was
written. Do not buy a Max D unless you are confident in your
ability to repair them.
Pros:
Heavy power and good range for size, wonderful compactness
Cons:
This gun isn't the best at conserving ammo. Max D nozzle may provide a
little extra range but it will break over time.
Recommendation: Neutral
