I recently bought a gamo swarm gen 3 .22 caliber, after breaking the barrel, I noticed a thin shaving of lead fell and hit my leg after I shot, this seems to happen every 10 shots or so, I'm not real experienced with air guns so I'm not sure what's going on, I just shot 30 pellets and I found about five shavings one was in the front of my scope? Can anybody help me?

Are those shavings soft? They look like metal shards from manufacturing to me but I could definitely be wrong!

It looks like an alignment issue. I'd look at the magazine each time I cocked it to make sure that the pellets are aligned with the bore. There's probably one hole that doesn't quite line up. Are one in six or so shots not as accurate?

Contact Gamo, they will replace your magazine. Just let them the issue. Great customer service!!! I had the same issue with my Swarm Magnum.
