Heres an article I found on the Omen and it goes like this:

Dale Price on the Omen:
The Omen is the most exciting and unique electronic marker I have seen in recent memory. Using it exclusively for the 2003 season I found the accuracy on par with the Autococker with the speed of an Angel. An exciting feature is the side feed breech system, which allowed me to post-up, sighting right over the barrel. The ability ability to use autococker threaded barrels is a huge plus, as is the closed bolt firing system. The Omen is extremely easy to field-strip on or off the field with the push pin in back and the sear release in the grip.

Another new feature is the re-cock adjustment screw on the side of the body...very nice to sweet spot. The feed-finger on the side of the gun feeds as fast as I or any of my teammates can dribble on the trigger, while the second feed-finger prevents any balls from chopping. These fingers allow you to use standard hoppers instead of having the fastest/most expensive hopper in the world. Having shot roughly 50,000 paintballs through it, I have never chopped or broken a ball. The Omen feeds like a dream!

At the Draxxus IAO this year in Pittsburg the Turtles won all 13 games. The Omen held it's own against all other markers game after game and never let me down. In the semis and finals using the Omen I eliminated the key player on the break all six games; shooting through a gap 12" wide at 70 feet away. Impressive for a marker at half the price of most tournament guns! I've played with every tournament marker in the world and the Omen not only holds its own, it flat out RIPS! I won't be caught without the Omen.

If you want to hear stuff about the E-Mag I posted it on pbstar.com on the gun pictures area and yes I got that that from actionvillage catalog. The info should be on the first page

This "review" was from Dale Price, from the Turtles. He's had his Omen since I have, before IAO. His Omen was one of the very first Omens out like mine, but apparently he has NEVER had to replace parts. At least thats what he said when I asked him at IAI. Him, me, and another guy were the only people at IAO with Omens. He's the player wth a prostetic leg.

My friend has an omen. After he got the back pressure tuned right and put a drop forward on it, the marker runs amazing.

I really want one now.
