also, nazgul: buy them like they were gold at 2.50 per pound, they don't make them any more, and I believe many nerfers will pay top dollar for them, if you don't feel the need to use them.

...Uh, which ones? Last time I checked, an AT4k superceded the SM3k, and the SM3k blue was a joke, like Preceptors and Whiptail Scorpions. Main problem is that many SM3k Blues have a very large diameter pump, which leaks air around the O-ring at too large a pressure, reducing possible pressure greatly. The rotating action is better on the AT3k, as well. Sorry to be so negative, but I'd be saying the same if he got a shelf full of Bungee Blasters or Ramrods.
Meanwhile, you could always use 1/2" CPVC instead of 1/2" Copper... Just tighter ID. To reduce the elasticity of your micro stefans, you can just hollow out the cores with a Wendy's straw, about 3/4 of the way into the dart. Not perfect, but a vast improvement on >1/2" OD FBR trying to mate with ~1/2"ID CPVC.

Also, as Zero noted, the pump on the SM3k blue had an inferior seal and tended to snap off at the handle.
Identically modded, the range should be more or less the same for both. They have similarly sized air tanks and a nearly identical seal between tank and turret.
All things considered, the AT3k is superior to the SM3k blue in every way.
