Congratulations! That is the weapon to have these days, and I salute you on your victory in the trials! I also love the high impact pulse's. Personally however, I prefer Three Little Words over the Messenger. The weapons have pretty identical stats and perks, right down to the third eye, headseeker, and a recoil reducing perk. The difference is that 3 little words recoils straight up, but only slightly. This makes it SUPER easy to land one in the chest and two in the head, regularly activating the headseeker perk a maximum percentage (2/3's) of the time. The Messenger doesn't recoil at all, which normally is AWESOME. But it wastes the headseeker perk. All three rounds land in such a tight grouping, that they all hit head or not -either way the perk does nothing a vast majority of the time. If Messenger had glass half full, or full auto, it would be a monster. Its still a really solid weapon, but I feel like the headseeker holds it back.
