combi- means you have the base gun (bolt gun for CSM) +1 shot in the entirety of the game of what ever is listed. So for plasma look at the plasma gun profile, flamer look at the flamer profile, melta look at the melta gun profile.

Just to clarify, if you had a combi-plasma you could choose in one turn to shoot plasma instead of your bolt gun, and then can never shoot plasma again from that models combi-weapon. And a combi-bolter as you said is simply a boltgun that is twin-linked

This. You get one shot with the other weapon profile over the course of the game.

Okay, I will admit it has been quite a while since I looked at marine troops that carry something other then sonic blasters and blastmasters so correct me if I am wrong, but I thought it was storm-bolters that had Twinlinked?

No. Storm Bolters are Assault 2. Combi-bolters are twin-linked.

He can shoot 1 shot at 12" range with the pistol and then charge He can shoot 1 shot at 24" range with the combi bolter (twinlinked) He can rapid fire the combi-bolter at 12" range (twinlinked), but may not charge. (if I've read this right and the model is armed with a combi bolter and a bolt pistol...)

What I listed was per game turn To all intents and purposes combi bolter = twin linked bolter. Combi plasma you get to fire as a plasma gun once per game. Combi Melta you get to fire as a melta gun once per game. Combi Bolter - fire it every turn, it counts as twin linked.

A combi bolter is not the same as a combi-weapon. Combi-bolters are clearly defined on page 65 of the chaos codex. Combi weapons are in the brb.
If you dont have twinlinked in a weapon profile or a special rule that gives it, then it isnt twinlinked.
