Hello everybody.
Trinity invited me to your form.
My name is Bill Holstein I am with CCM .
CCM builds custom pump guns. We are a mom and pop business. We have about 15 people working here.
Our products are 100% made in the USA. We buy made in the USA screws and springs when we can find them. We also buy USA aluminium.
We are two business's. CCM paintball and DPM. We also make parts for the computer,food,electronics,plastic industries.
My passion is building paintball guns that I would like to have.
The first gun that I hand built was the T2. My second gun was the boltaction sniper rifle.
I don't build guns on market research. I build what I would like to have. It is an honor to have people follow my projects. If the project goes main stream that's fine. But that is not the goal.
The goal is to do it. An it is a lot of fun to see a project come to life.
I will be working with Trinity on finalizing the sniper rifle. His experience in sniper mil sim will be valuable in making the rifle the best tool we can. I didn't make this to shoot paintballs although it does. It was designed for FS rounds. I have some high hopes and ideas to make this gun give the operator the best experience I can in the role of a paintball sniper.
We will keep you up to date on what we find out. I will visit as often as I can although Trinity will be my goto person. But feel free to ask me any questions you may have .
Thank you,
Bill Holstein - CCM

Newbie from Scotland
Hello everyone!
My name is Liam and I have recently become addicted to paint balling!!
I came across this site in search of information and it appears to have information on everything. I have recently purchased a tiberius t9.1 and cant wait to start using it!! I really like woods ball and cant wait till my next game. Will probably be on here allot asking the usual noob questions so for the old school guys, please don't get mad...

Kool. I'm a member now. I promise I won't ask a lot of questions. My dad n me have gone out twice now. I'm hoping to get my own gun. The rentals suck. I'm wanting to be a sniper. So I came to this forum.

Welcome
Feel free to ask, we'l answer as well as we can, there's a lot of info in different threads, and a lot of stuff unrelated to paintball also.
Remember, playing a sniper role demands a lot of dedication, training and patience, but it can be very rewarding. Keep training and analyzing what happen on the field.

Hey everyone! I'm excited to be part of this forum;
there's a wealth of knowledge on here and I hope I'll be able to contribute.
Name: Josh "Smithers" Smith
Current Marker(s): Too many, but namely a T9.1
Time playing: 10 years total, 3 years playing scenarios and 2 years playing tourneys.
Team Affiliation: Team AFC from West Virginia (scenario) and Orange County Predators (speedball).
Other Info: Yes, I play both woodsball and tourney ball. I love the game and I feel that there are valuable skills to be learnt from both aspects of it. I used to own a T9.1 when they first came out, but sold it when I started getting into speedball. I'm trying to get more focused on scenario ball once again and take on the role of sniper as I feels it's the most effective way to be a force multiplier on the field. This is my goal.
I mostly play in the North Carolina/Virginia scene. Fulda Gap is my big game of choice.

To be honest, I'm originally from North Carolina. I'm only in Georgia for a short period of time because I'm on TDY. Thanks for the tips  |

Welcome aboard. I see some of the best, most informed sniper/marksmen discussions taking place here. Funny you should mention a West Coast Shoot-off. Bill and I were just talking about that last night. CCMs SR1 is a lot of fun.

Casper, how did that Trracer work out as a FS sniper? I have one but haven't gotten the chance to use it in a game. Did you do any mods to it?

Hello,
Name: Johnny
Current Markers: Tippman 98 Custom DMR
Past Markers: None
Time Playing: 1 year
Team Affiliation: None
Other Info: Currently waiting to ship out to California for USMC Boot Camp, hardcore MILSIM AIRSOFT Veteran and I have played for 11 years, I switched to Paintball because my area has no serious Airsoft players... Always been a sniper and I pride myself in being the finest Milsim Sniper I can be as far as tactics goes. My gear might not be the fanciest but I hit 99% of the time and I believe skill makes a good sniper not just a fancy gun. I make or customise many things for my guns both real and Paintball. I Also make the best ghillie suits around my area and have made many types including arctic snow, woodlands, desert, grasslands, and urban. I pride myself in being a practitioner of the true art of the ghillie suit and camouflage. Glad to be here! Thanks for the invite!
