But I tell the truth even when it hurts. I have to say that the CVA with electronic ignition is a damn fine dependable rifle until the battery goes dead!
I don't know. They may have some type of way built into it that will allow you to fire it in an emergency in case the battery does go dead.
Well, I won't ever buy one of them. Kit Carson and Jim Bridger and a few others probably rolled over in their graves when I bought an inline period.
But I like my CVA. When I go home (I'll be back there again in less than 30 days and I'm walking the floor counting to) I don't worry about things like a hunting season. There really isn't one. If you need fresh meat then go look for it. Nobody's going to say anything, even if there was somebody out there to say anything which there isn't. Sometimes you don't have to look for it. Sometimes it look's for you. So I didn't buy an inline for an extended or second hunting season.
My CVA is leaning up in the corner here about 3 feet from where I'm sitting right now. I don't even know where it was made. I read on here that they are made in Spain. I know I must have read it on my rifle at one time or the other or in the manual somewhere but I don't remember. I just know it's very accurate and it's dependable as hell.
The first blackpowder rifle I ever bought was a 'traditional style' .50 caliber. Percussion. Side hammer. Lot's of brass furniture on it with a brass buttplate and a patch box built into the stock. Didn't use screws to hold the barrel on. It had 2 wedges. When you held it up to your shoulder it took 20 minutes to see all the way to the end of the barrel it was so long. It shot patched round balls. That's all it was made to shoot. I paid Cabela's about $500.00 for that thing, maybe a little more than that. Only living thing I ever shot with it was a Wolverine that was up in a tree waiting on me to pass back under the tree so he could jump out on me. He got his ass fooled....
Well, anyway, I like CVA.... Add on--Yeah, made in Spain. Well, I don't give a damn if it was made on the moon. It shoot's good....
