Pictures Finally of CVA Pistol
Well I finally was able to go shoot my new CVA Optima Pistol and post pics. Overall I am very impressed with the pistol. The only complaints that I have is getting a new oring to correct the spacing of the primer/firing pin bushing and the scope base. The scope base only has three slots making it impossible to use three scope rings. My uncle has a contender and all other contenders that i have seen has three rings to deal with the recoil. The pistol has the recoil of a 454 or a very hot load of a 44 mag. It is a blast to shoot though. Even placed a couple clay pigeions at 100 yards and the pistol tore them apart! I won't be afraid of a 100 yard shot, but still need to chrono though. Load so far is 90 grains BH209, 250 grain XTP, Harvester crushed rib sabot. Warne low mounts and Simmons 4x pistol scope.
