ill bookmark that one, a pump is definitely on my radar for the next purchase, but with basically what im considering the "entry cost" being at least a hand pump and a scope i had to go with the cheaper option to get a decent rifle at the moment. i live out near the great lakes so i may also have the option of a dive shop, which would allow the SCBA routeMy recommendation would be the notos as well to get you started place a wtb ad to sace a few bucks and get yourself the GX PUMP CS2 https://a.co/d/0946PszR and a scope I did the hand pump route for a while and you will enjoy it more if you have the ease of filling. I am also in NY so if you want to reach out in a PM we can chat not sure where in NY you are but willing to help if I can.
