Abstract:
A high pressure air pressurized toy water gun adapted to receive pressurized or unpressurized water, said toy water sun being operable in a first mode to store and pressurize received unpressurized water and in a second mode to store received pressurized water, comprising:a housing;an extended handle connected to said housing, a barrel extending outwardly away from said handle;a trigger located adjacent the handle;a nozzle having an orifice therethrough, said nozzle being disposed at the end of said barrel;a high pressure, water storage reservoir having an orifice adapted to have unpressurized water poured therethrough;an avenue of release connecting said nozzle to said water storage reservoir;a valve operable to admit fluid from an external, pressurized water source into said water storage reservoir while said high pressure, water storage reservoir is connected to the gun;a manually operable pump coupled to the housing for pressurizing said water storage reservoir with air when an external pressurized source of water is unavailable or insufficient to adequately pressurize the water storage reservoir; anda flow connection assembly dimensioned and arranged for sealing attachment to an external, pressurized source of water and to the gun whereby flow of pressurized water is directable through the valve and into the reservoir.
