AO: We are back from the dead... again! After an 18 day outage, we are finally alive and well. Who knew how complicated updating software/databases from 2008 would be. I still have alot of tweaks to make, but my main goal was getting everything patched and updated to 2026.
Vbulletin 6 has changed alot since 2008 so we will have a ton of new features to dig into.
considering getting a ccm t2 marker, anyone one own one? ive got a ule bodied pump mag with a rainman pump kit, how do they compare? pros and cons...thanks
The pump stroke is similar. Very smooth and light. The dual pump rods eliminate pump twist. The CCM auto-trigger is an asset even if you don't use it much. It's nice to have. Maintenance is super easy. I recommend any CCM.
I have one and really like it. It's light and very efficient, as far as snipers go. I have it set up with the 86 frame and T-handle for the pump. Pump stroke is smooth. Some complain that it feels metallic, but I like that it doesn't feel like plastic.
Cons... I hate the ccm ASA. I bought a Bob long Geardrive and really like it. Also the reg doesn't have a collar to spin and depending on where "tight" is, you macro fitting may sit off to the side as opposed to directly in front of the trigger. I've just dealt with it, but wouldn't mind getting some of those Ninja clips to bring it around. I know... More Teflon tape too. I also replaced the 86 panels with Hogue wrap arounds because my hands fit them better.
Also it will depend which version you have for detents. I have the original with Spyder/Timmy style, but ccm shifted to o-rings.
I also like the ease of breakdown and maintenance. Stand by with your torx drivers (comes with a #10, but its loose in the case).
I picked up a t2 recently, haven't even gotten a chance to play with it yet! But I will say the build quality is incredible... Everything is just nice. Also the pump stroke is buttery smooth. I will be taking it for a test drive next Sunday, I'll try to remember to report back!
I also vote that CCMs are very nice and worth the money.
There are a few things you have with a ULE pump mag that you won't have with a CCM. One is no double feeds (assuming you have a detent). After any on-field chaos, you can always stroke a pump mag if you can't tell from the trigger that it is ready to go. The other is the ability to over-bore your paint. With egg-shaped event paint, it's sometimes nice to pull out a pump mag with a .690+ barrel. Another small thing is playing in the rain. It's hard to flood a pump mag. Snipers get water almost everywhere, especially on the bolt and in the hammer bore (still playable I admit).
None of that outweighs a CCM, but it does make me keep a pump mag around.
I also like the sniper platform as a pump because you can feel the pump push the ball into the barrel. That with a well tuned trigger is big fun for me.

the seller is great. I absolutely recommend him.
Thanks for the link. I was looking for a 12g dropout changer all day. He had a few of them.
