Now after fixing the chopping problem my bolt or something in side the gun squeaks...

One thing i noticed is that if i kepp the trigger pulled back it doesnt squeak until i let the trigger go. I've lubed the bolt and other such o rings in the the gun but it still squeaks.

When you pull the trigger to puncture your 12g, pull it hard.

The CO2 is already punctured its when it shoots. I'll pull the trigger and it shoots, ill hold down the trigger but only when i let it go it squeaks.

its the chamber filling with air. A lot of regulators and stuff do this when they are first used. Once it breaks in, it will stop.

Yes, what I meant was 'when' you puncture the 12g, pull harder on the trigger.
Mine squawks too unless I pull hard to puncture the 12g.
This may be like TheGuy says, an air flow issue, I don't know.
 
I'm guessing that the puncture pin is in the 12g when you pull to shoot, when you
release the trigger, the puncture pin backs out and a rush of CO2 enters the
system with a squawking sound.
