My New Omen-Need Help!

[sosoDAF]

Well, last night, I finally decided to get an omen.
I went to the store, and got one. I love it for the most part, but have a few questions.
Note: I have read the FAQ, and stickies.

Anyways, I bought some ultra evil paint for it. I am currently running anti siphoned co2 (temporarily) on it.
Today, when I played, I was amazed how well I could rip on this thing. The only problem I had was I broke a fair amount of paint in the barrel, and chopped a few times. I was wondering what I can do to fix this.
Thanks.

The paint could of been too big,
you could of been getting spikes with the Co2,
you may have set the recock too high.

being how new it is you might be having spikes from the regulator. it is said that it takes about 5000 shots for the regulator to be fully broken in and that's about what it took mine to level out. i was getting big spikes and had a problem of "chopping". Now this "chopping" isn't really chopping at all. It's with a preasure spike the ball is being forced into the chamber at a higher speed than the ball can take and it hits the bumper inside the chamber. when it does this it breaks the paint and creates a chop like look. If you have paint on your cam arms it's a chop. if not you broke one in the chamber. The stock barrel is a very good barrel and i would take it over the boomstick i used to have.
hope this helps

and always try and get your recock as low as it can go. every time you change your velocity, you will most likely need to change it. if some how liquid gets past the reg, it will cause big spikes as it expands beyond the regulator.
