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.
