Nail Spring Ranch serves as a premier training and conference center, hosting Department of Defense and Law Enforcement personnel as well as outdoor and industrial manufacturers from around the world.

GRANTS PASS, Ore., Sept. 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Becklin Holdings, parent company of ECS Composites ("ECS" or the "Company"), the leading designer and manufacturer of custom protective cases for integrators and contractors of all scales, today announced the acquisition of Nail Spring Ranch. Located in the heart of Oregon's scenic Langell Valley, the 2,000-acre ranch is deeply rooted in the Klamath Basin and its history. Just 45 minutes east of Klamath Falls, the ranch will serve as a new hub for innovation, content creation, product testing, and client engagement.

"Nail Spring Ranch is more than just acreage—it's a unique and promising opportunity," said Sterling Becklin, President of ECS Composites and Chairman of the Board of Becklin Holdings. "This acquisition reflects our ongoing commitment to advancing excellence in the defense and outdoor industries. Likewise, the ranch's expansive facilities, strategic location, and multi-use capabilities make it the perfect complement to our mission of delivering reliable, high-performance solutions to our customers worldwide."

The newly acquired property has long been a cornerstone of the Langell Valley community. Spanning 2,000 acres of rolling ranges, working cattle pastures, and open space, Nail Spring Ranch blends the rustic with the modern. Its size and terrain make it ideal for field testing, live demonstrations, and creating authentic content that showcases defense and outdoor products in real-world environments. Beyond its utility for product innovation, the ranch also offers premium accommodations, including housing for up to 24 guests, a private hangar and airstrip, and a wellness facility. These features provide an elevated experience for clients, partners, and visitors, allowing for extended stays, immersive events, and specialized training programs.

In addition to its role with ECS, the ranch is also utilized by a premier shooting instruction company, Modern Day Sniper ("MDS"), that brings world-class expertise to the property. Led by Caylen Wojcik, a former Marine Corps Scout Sniper with nearly 20 years of training experience, Caylen has guided over 3,000 individuals behind the rifle, delivering more than 80,000 in-person training hours and 10,000 training days. Through its Precision Rifle Shooting courses, MDS serves law enforcement agencies, law-abiding citizens, special operations units, hunters, firearms enthusiasts, and competitors from around the world.

"The ranch provides an environment unlike any other for our training programs," said Caylen Wojcik, founder of Modern Day Sniper. "Its ranges, facilities, and accommodations allow us to provide the highest level of instruction in the most outstanding of environments. Having the space and infrastructure to train at this scale ensures that every participant leaves here with the knowledge, skillset, and confidence to take their shooting to the next level."

For Becklin Holdings, the acquisition represents a strategic investment in growth and innovation. By securing a property of this scale and versatility, the company strengthens its ability to conduct practical product testing, engage with customers in immersive ways, and expand its content creation efforts in a secure and controlled environment.

Combining tradition with modern infrastructure, the property embodies both the Company's heritage of reliability and its vision for the future.
