I am really considering getting a pump gun. But before I commit Id like some idea of how accurate a pump really is! If anyone can give me some real examples of the accuracy of thier pump markers thatd be great, if you could show any comparisons to a semi-auto marker, then thatd be better.

Last Saturday at the field with my Phantom and the velocity around 290 I shot 3 or 4 semis at around 150-200 feet. I can hit a 6 inch wide board at 125 feet consecutively.

That is very good indeed! how i do enjoy pump paintball.
Pumps are very accurate and give you a sturdier grip on the marker.

You will probably find yourself shooting more accurately while playing pump. However, this isn't really because pumps are more accurate, but rather because when playing pump, you are forced to make your shots count, and therefore aim more carefully and concentrate more. With that said, a phantom is just about the most accurate gun you can get stock. Anyway, unless you are really great, the accuracy of the actual gun will not affect you that much. Pump play is a lot of fun though, and I would definitely recommend trying it out.

A WGP Sniper is also a great buy. It is the perfect marker for someone you loves to tinker with their marker. It accepts all cocker parts including the front pneumatics incase you want to change over to semi or just play a semi game and switch back. O..I have a question has anyone seen a WGP Sniper with a Flatline barrel on it? i was just wondering.

Yeah, the Sniper II is a good gun. Many people like the extra weight because it helps them stay steady while aiming. If you are thinking of using it as an Autococker as well, you might be better off buying an Autococker and converting it to a Sniper II. It's cheaper that way, isn't it?

Actually It's the same price If you buy a Sniper 2 and convert it. But it's more if you buy a Sniper 3 because they cost more. I like being able to buy a pump and upgrade it to it's limit indlucing converting it to semi operation.
