I think the 3k is good enough to justify my stock because it's the only gun I've ever used in a war that is flexible enough to do whatever I require of it. I've played in a CTF game where I was sitting 20' forward of my flag, took out two rushers, then immediately afterwards as my guy grabbed their flag I was able to move forward and clear a path for him. Having 6 accurate shots that I can get off in under 20 seconds is just a huge tactical advantage.
That said, the 4k is probably similarly cool.
Edit: You are correct, the at3k is pump (auto rotate), fire, repeat not full auto.

Aw, come on! That's why I like it!One reason you may not like the sm3k is because of it's massive size.
mine hasn't ever skipped on me, and eight shots in about seven seconds while still being accurate,and having an average range of 65-70', (holding it naturally) can beat out a whole bunch of guns, including in my opinion, an At3K. I use my AT2K as a sidearm to the SM3K, a tribute to it's usefulness.
But that's just me.

If you're referring to my pvc mod, that was 100' at an angleaverage range of 65-70'
What happened to 100'?

If you're referring to my 10" E-Z pipe barrel mod, that was with four pumps (and risking the detonation of the gun might I add)
I cut the barrels down to five inches, and stopped pumping more than once. (on the advice of a few nerf veterans) so now those are the ranges I get.

I have modded my AT3K with: single breechloaded paperboard barrel (10" long, 17/32" ID), replacement of goo tube and the original tubing with 10" of 1/4" OD tubing, release valve plugged, and a 1/2x3/4" PVC sight with paperclip crosshairs. I pump it five times, and when the trigger actually fires it, the darts go over 100'. I would say that the AT3K is better than the SM3K and AT4K in size, weight, accuracy, and distance. That all depends on how they are modded though.

so you mean there's something wrong with it, or what ?I pump it five times, and when the trigger actually fires it, the darts go over 100'.

The pressure gets high enough that the spring will be fully compressed when the trigger is pulled, yet the valve plug won't be pulled. I solved that with minor modding. Now comes the funny: when my AT3K is pumped 5-6 times, my friend, his brothers, and my dad cannot pull the trigger. It's as if they have no finger strength. Interesting. My trigger is now starting to have damage from stress, but the tubing inside the gun has yet to crack or leak.

Heehee, I guess that IS a good reason to like a gun...Aw, come on! That's why I like it!One reason you may not like the sm3k is because of it's massive size.
mine hasn't ever skipped on me, and eight shots in about seven seconds while still being accurate,and having an average range of 65-70', (holding it naturally) can beat out a whole bunch of guns, including in my opinion, an At3K. I use my AT2K as a sidearm to the SM3K, a tribute to it's usefulness.
But that's just me.
Anyway, regarding the supermaxx3k, I guess it wasn't really my position to say "it's not as good" because people have their own preferences. One of my friends owns a sm3k and it sucks like crap, and DOES miss turns . I guess that's just his: More power to ya if yours is awesome.
Yeah, Namm's explanation would be WHY I'm changing my mind. My person preference is smaller guns so that I can move around easier, and move my guns around easier. But that's just me.

Conclusion: SM3k still my favored for insane distance, easy mod and minimal pumping, but the higher ammo for a minimal range sacrifice for the AT4k and the same range of the AT4k for the wonderful feel and size of the AT3k make variety my friend.

You can achieve ranges like that with only one pump?I cut the barrels down to five inches, and stopped pumping more than once. (on the advice of a few nerf veterans)
