So, for the most part ive gotten fairly bored with my semi, It doesnt matter how fast I shoot, how many people I get, it just doesnt seem fun to play with them anymore. As such, I wanted to get back into pump, so I bought a cheap cocker pump, loved it, got another, loved it even more, then got 3 more, sold my first 2, and have settled in with these next two and one spare(just a prostock with stock 2finger frame and ccm pump kit, not really worth pic's)
so, these were my 2 main markers...

and now here are my two main markers for rec./big games

I enjoy pump much more than semi, and I certainly have been playing a lot better with them. I play more aggresive, think a lot more about my moves, get a lot more kills, and use a lot less paint. Thinking about getting a T2, but Ive never shot a ccm marker or a halfblock, Im afraid it might be too light, too smooth and too fast for me, but im still looking into it.

I approve.
I've been considering building another Sniper for some time now, but I just can't justify it yet.

Go for it, what are your reasons against making a sniper?
Right now I use the orry more because it just feels more comfy to hold(wrap arounds feel awesome and the trigger pull feels more consistent/favourable to me) but its still a bit heavy for my liking, anyone see any reason not to get a halfblock? I figure it might help out with the balance, it really did change a lot when I put on the DW barrel.

Half-block's are awesome on pumps, if you're considering it, go for it.
Right now I'm very content with my AKA Sniper, and I can't justify spending the money on another gun when I don't play enough as it is.

yeah I know... I think ive gone through like 6 cockers that I wanted for projects but settled down on these two. Im also fairly happy how I picked these up as well. Got the orry from a guy who had it electronic, converted her, and loved it. The same guy was selling the superstock(electronic) to another guy, well known in the local pump community, and because he was a well known pumper the guy said he would let it go to him for cheap. The pumper who wanted it said thanks, im just going to sell it to another guy for a hundred more... so I got a call that night, asking if I had a spot for a nice cocker.
also got a project marker going on, should work on it during the winter, hoping to make my own halfblock mq pump, just gotta get the hammer and I should be able to do the rest myself. hehe Ive also been having this wild dream...been working on something for the guns in the top picture
