    Re: feed system

    Its like a vertical power feed off to the side of the gun which does nothing that I can think of to increase ROF over a vert feed. The only thing I can think of is that you can sight down your gun, but nobody does that anyway
    It's actually advertised as a cam operated force feed system. It's offset to push paint into the gun. Sounds nifty but I have'nt seen one yet.

          looks like just another spyder clone...with a unique feed system

          you two need to stop posting

          the omen is an electropneumatic (i believe) closed bolt paintball gun. from all initial reports it shoots VERY nicely. it also uses a cam or a cam operated piston to force the paint into the gun with each shot. this makes the gun chop proof, and also kinda similar to the tippman A-5 system.

          however, for those preordering it, remember the 6 month curse. i dont know if its still around, but usually teh first six months of a marker are marked by errors and problems that the company has not foreseen.

            THanks Halb. I did hear around that the feed was having problems, but that might have been in prototype stages who knows if its still having problems. Do yall think i should get one of these over an impy for value?
