Things to do to a marker right out of the box?
What are some things I Should do / check for to ensure my marker is working properly right out of the box? I assume dissembling the bolt and lubing o-rings is a must, but is there anything else I should be aware of? (Besides lubing and velocity adjustment)

Take a few shots and see how everything is working. If it all runs good, no worries.

TechPB is always a good source of info. Ask some people on PbNation - Paintball's Home Page too. They know their stuff.

Wow dude, really? Way to be an asshole.  Seriously dude, there's nothing wrong getting information from more than one site. Not to mention, I suggested those sites AFTER he said he already checked on a different site. So chill out Trbo. Or I'll sick the ninjas on you.

You were being an ass dude. I don't like it when people act like a jackass. And yes, I have an army of super ninjas. As a matter of fact, I have multiple armies of multiple ownage capabilities.

Chill dude. I was giving him resources, just in case. And plus, I WAS going to start going through a few options when you came and went all "STFU N00B" on my ass. Anyways OP, just run a few rounds through it. Check the O-rings and the bolt and the basic essentials that you would check on anyways and everything should be fine. I wouldn't really recommend messing with the marker right out of the box since it's all good to go anyways. If you have issues with it then look through your manual and so on and so forth.

Sure. Then fire off a few shots and make adjustments accordingly.
