Fimco 60 Gallon 3-PT sprayer or something else?

Any thoughts pro or con of an AG SPRAYER vs AG-MEIER CHILTON BELTON 55 gallon 17' boom sprayer. I got quotes on both for $2100 and both seem to use the same 6 bearing pump. The CHILTON BELTON seems to include 'flood' tips on the end of the boom extending the coverage to 30' so, I'm leaning that direction slightly thinking I can shut them off if I'm in tall weeds or let them run in open pasture for pre-emergent or fertilizer applications.

Seems nice for the cost…see my previous comment,on the pump, especially if you are thinking of spraying glyphosate…

Left a message to see if that silver pump is an option. Based on what I have read, they are pretty hard to source so, don't know if that is an option today. For ~$300 extra, seems like a good upgrade.
