Default 5/10: Is 3-bet shoving here pure spew?

Villain in this hand is regular who plays pretty tight for 6m (19/14) but is v.v. good in my opinion. He uses his tight image well, and has run a couple successful bluffs on me in the past. I kind of suspect he's taking a stab at the pot, as I fire a lot of 2nd barrels here. A shove will fold out flush draws, straight draws, air, and one-pair hands like JJ or AQ that he's turning into a bluff. Obviously, I don't fold out trips or boats, and he miiiight look me up with AA/KK. Plus, I almost always have at least one out if called. So, stick it in?
