The main one that comes to mind is ammo for support: t3 < t2+t1

This choice, m4 vs boomstick+pump, comes up midgame, and also comes up lategame if you have strength, when deciding extra weapon/s alongside the aa12 and medpistol .

The M4 has 48 shells and enables you to be wasteful of them; restraint required . For cheaper and effectively the same weight, you can grab the pump and boomstick instead, and you'll have a whopping 96 shells to work with, letting you constantly contribute for the whole wave.



If you don't have strength, your main lategame options alongside an AA12 is either a pump, or boomstick+medpistol. Dosh permitting, I definitely recommend the latter.
