Question do we have to argue over brands???

im pretty new here and therefore may not have the seniority to talk about this but there seems to be a never ending debate about cva vs tc . here is my limited experience
of the people i hunt with we have a mixed bag of artillery and ammo
dad; tc hawkin 54
step dad ; knight disc 50
bobo; knight rb 50
jimmy ; black diamond 50
travis; cva wolf 50
parker; cva hunter bolt 50
eric; traditions black diamond knock off ?? 50
fat kyle; cva optima thumb hole and ss 50
brother; cva deer stalker carbine 50
me; black diamond, z5 omega, had my brothers rifle and once a cva bobcat all 50's
and we all kill deer, get decent groups, and have a generally good time hunting or shooting together even though we dont all hunt together at the same times and we have never had any problems with our guns except the tradions we cant find parts for and the bobcat was really worth the 60 dollars i paid for it at walmart. i think thats a pretty decent show of weapons for some poor hick kids and a couple old farts and we dont argue about what the other is carrying or the powder or bullet they are shooting there are good and bad ones in every run the thing that matters is we are all hunters and come together to do and talk about what we love especially in this era of anti's. well thats my 2cents let the messages and the you dont have a clues roll in

An open-minded attitude like that WILL NOT BE TOLERATED RedNeckMike. Shame on you!

Half of those guys are using the wrong gun. The other half are using the wrong gun too.

Heck, we have to argue about something. Can't argue politics here (we would probably all agree anyway). Can't argue about women because everyone knows redheads are superior so there's no room for argument.

I agree totally, and another thing if someone new wants to buy a cheap ML to start off that's great. I started with a cheap CVA Staghorn or was it a Eclips...for the $89 I spent, I killed a-lot of deer with it and I was happy We should'nt push a more expensive ML on them, mabey they cant afford one, in time when things get better they'll get one as they evolve into the sport. For now let's just help everyone as were here to do, whatever there shooting.

I sure like to read the good natured ribbing that goes on amung friends but I agree that all out fighting about the barrel of a gun is kinda rediculous.
I think it's great that people,myself included become loyal to a certian brand,it's all good.I recently sold my Encore and only own CVA now,I like the way the company is going and I will ride for a while.
As far as which is better,CVA of course,DUHH
And I'll fight about it
