my new pump marker

[vDubLeics]

im new to pump markers and i should be picking up my new pump (Armsom Pump ) at NvS, thanks to @baudsenseless i hope to use it for the first time week on Saturday but what tips can you give me so i don't get completely humiliated (i will also take my A5 for backup)

You can't fire any further, or any more accurately than any other marker and will normally be out classed in a straight up fire fight. Choose your shots wisely, there's no point in drawing the oppositions attention by shooting at them if you aren't going to hit unless your deliberately distracting them from someone else on your team.

As above.For the 5 minutes I played pump with my Azodin,I found it impossible to go toe to toe with a semi-auto.Before it blew the o-ring in the reg,I only managed one "kill."If youre good at sneaking around and going for the one shot wonder,they are great.Like I said,I only used it for a few games before the o-ring went,so I gave up and swapped it for a DM8.Just wasnt my thing.

To be fair you didn't have the best intro to pump.

No,Im very aware of that,and the mrs still wont let me live it down.lol.It was an impulse buy and wanted to try something different.Next time,Ill do my homework.Haha.

Thing is I think I know all about pumps and came very close to buying one of those myself, it was only when I started googling when you had your troubles that I learnt the regs were prone to fail.

looks like i'm in for a good time then still cant wait to use it... been watching videos on youtube about pump guns and this one is my favourite

A friend let me borrow his the other day, obviously the fire rate can't come close to a semi auto and you can't stand toe to toe, but they make you practice your accuracy and positioning so that the 1st or 2nd shot count. So then when you go back to playing with a semi-auto or whatever it makes your game better.
