my Silver Bullet just arrived last week and i love it. i've been mainly using it with the Double Barrel cap which took a bit to get used to though. i have no complaints about it yet.

If it were me, I'd go with the Siler Bullet solely on the fact that it has a more ergonomic button. But that's me.
With the Omega, you press down the whole top part with your thumb to make it fire. I imagine that may get stressful on your thumb after a while.
On the other hand, the Silver Bullet has the button on the side, which is the most ergonomic position in my opinion.
Although, I probably think about those things more than most, since I have a repetitive stress injury. Still, even for someone without an injury, it is worth considering to keep yourself from developing one.
But before you buy any mod, please educate yourself about how to use external batteries safely. It's not like a regular e-cig - they build them with all the safety features included. With a mod, the onus is on you to be safe.
Rolygate has written a great article about batteries and safety.

I have no injuries and own both the SB and the OmeGa. Thing is, while I love the fact that the OmeGa is purely mechanical and easily serviceable, it can wear on your thumb. In fact, until I got my P18, I had built up and oddly shaped callous on my thumb from depressing the OmeGa. Both are phenomenal devices and while similar in size, the slight concave shape of the OmeGa and the slightly smaller profile make it seem even smaller.
For ease of use though, I'd say the SB. For longevity and ease of service, I'd say the OmeGa. For vaping beyond.....
The Super T P18, the Reo Grande, or the Ali'i....
Haven't tried a GG yet.

I would personally go with the SB over the Omega which is what I'm going to do soon. Honestly I have neither one yet. From all I have seen and heard they both are made fantastically and both work equally well. The reason(s) for my choosing of the SB are 1.) I like the button better then the idea of clicking the top 2.) Personally I think it looks a little cooler 3.) It's significantly cheaper at 85 bucks now I think and from all accounts I've heard works equally well and should last the same amount of time. If I'm mistaken on the life comparison please don't hesitate to correct me.
