Incredibly light and durable, ported for quietness and accuracy. The barrel is precision crafted from Carbon Fiber. Comes with 4 aluminum spacers to fit 4 of the most popular sizes (.683, .685, .687, .689) The carbon is supplied by the manufacturers of the "ST!FF!", and then bonded to "high grade" aluminum components.
Product Availability
The Chipley Custom Machine Carbon Graphite Barrel System is newer, so it should be commonly available, both new and used.

Review:
The CCM barrel system is one of the lightets and most quiet barrels that I have ever tested. They build it with a slightly smaller diameter for the ports in order to keep just the right amount of compression. True porting and precision makes it unbeatable both in accuracy and sound displacement. The kit includes sizers .681 through .693 bored to fit all of the most popular paintballs. Comapred to the Stiffi Switch, I found the CCM quieter but only by very little.

Accurate
Good looking

Weaknesses:

Review:
I like the barrels look and shape. I wish it would come in different colors. My shots are tight and I use an older cocker. I get some great range and MAN IT IS QUIET!!!! I like the porting but it may be to hard to clean. I haven't chopped yet. LOL
Conclusion:
This is a must. My marker is a heavier one so I need the lighter parts to compensate for the body. When you first get it you tend to be very careful with it due to it being so light. It does the job every-bit as good as a boomstick with a fraction of the weight.

Review:
This is my all-time favorite barrel on my Phantom. I've used a J&J ceramic, the stock barrel, and Freak insert barrels, but this one takes the cake. No matter what I try out on my Phantom, this one goes back on for the majority of the day. Here's why.
Durable: The Carbon composite is very strong, this barrel can be banged around without cracking. However, pump wear shows up very fast on the aluminum parts of the CCM barrel, while the stock CCI barrel shows no wear at all (yet).
Quiet: This is the quietest barrel I have used on my Phantom. Quieter barrels are out there, but out of what's listed above, this one's the best.
Consistant: This is one of the most consistant shot-to-shot, barrels I have used. I prefer it over the stock barrel, even though the majority of Phantom owners disagree.
Looks Great: Ok, I'll admit it. I'm a Carbon Fiber freak. I like the material, and I'm happy to own a barrel that looks this good, and performs this well.
Cleans Easily: Using a rubber squeegee, the barrel cleans right out. It will also clean out a little bit by firing a few rounds through it. Not as well as the J&J Ceramic, but if you happen to have a ball break, your shot consistancy won't disappear. A word of warning, though--as the manufacturer says, use only rubber squeegees on this barrel, not the 'fuzzy' type. The fuzzy type tends to trap dirt, and this can ruin the interior finish of the barrel.
Conclusion:
I'm only giving this a 9 because of the problems with pump wear. Users without a pump rubbing the annodizing should have no problem, but CCM should have been more careful with the annodizing when releasing a Phantom-threaded version.

Review:
i recieved this for christmas and have used it for two days of play. i have shot xball bronze, midnight, and pmi premiums and what ever the nps named white box stuff is.these paints did ok through it (except the low grade). i found that instead of going with the bore that the paint is just tight enough to keep from falling out it is better to go to the bore that the paint is some what tight in.
if the paint is not round (like x ball how it is shaped like (|) as apposed to a circle, if that makes sence) then you get more velecioty flux. also i have had some roll throughs with this using the 681 sizer (yes it is .681inches i measured it with a caliper) so hence the reason i say use high quality consistant paint.
when i recieved the kit in the mail i picked up the box and said "man they sent me the wrong thing" after i opened it i realized it was just insanely light.
it is a pretty quiet barrel, from about 20 feet off you dont hear the shot much louder than my black block cycling (and no my block isnt even hitting the body).
cleaning
well all i can say is you cant use swabs like every other CF kit around so it makes it some what hard. my friend gave me the idea of using a rag of some type that doesnt rip appart to swab the barrel out (from what i understand this will not hurt the barrel but dont quote me). i am using a cheap rubber squeegie with a medical cloth that is used for absorbing blood during operations and it seemed to work ok.
the barrel is a little wide at the base for a cocker, the ano has striped off because it rubs against my gun when it is being screwed in. it just has a thin line of no ano and no damage to the gun so it doesnt matter to me.
and the last thing are the backs
the backs are a great design. they have flats to help unscrew the back from the tip if they get stuck and they have holes drilled in where the tip screws in incase the tip comes off seperately from the back (which i doubt can happen if u put them togeather the whole way.
it would be nice if the backs were an inch or 2 longer but its not to big of a deal if the paint is good quality.
Conclusion:
Its a good product from a good company, other than the back length and the ano its perfect. im going to say 8 because they have a few things they can improve on but other than that it is a nice kit.
