loli dont hate you. Im not even going to get fired up anymore over these issues when they pop up, Its not worth it and it doesnt help any newbies out or help anyother person out. As for randy wakemans articals about CVA, I like to print them out and use them as toilet paper. All my cva's i have owned have been great, the one traditions i own has been a dream and i love it. Randy likes to accuse CVA of being junk and barrel blasters but NO ONE can tell you or give you an idea what TC,knigh or other muzzleloader barrels are pressure tested at. Every rifle out there, even brand new are going to have flaws, This is what happens when you deal with something thats mass produced. Look at the automotive line these days. But i own a lot of cva's and all of themhave been great. I just wish they would put adjustable tumblers in the cva bobcats so you can fine tune it to your liking. But really guys, we all know how i've talked in the past, But ALL of us need to just take a deep breath when writing and tame it down. Trash talking any brand is no help to others looking for answers. If someone has something that you owned and had a good or bad experience, type it and give them an idea, but no trashing. Like when outdoorslover thought i was pissed off at him forbuying a tc, Heck no i wasnt! i was just pissed that he wouldnt sell me his apex! lol. But im over that and im shopping around for one. Not all rifles are made for everyone when it comes to the rifles size, weight, balance, trigger pull exe. But i do know that since BPI took over for cva, CVA customer service has been excellent for me. Only used it once for warranty when a gunsmith broke my rifle and cva sent me an entire new rifle free of charge. Traditions again ive had great experience with when i thought my frizzen was bad " crappy flints![:@]" They also sent me a free replacement ramrod when i broke mine and went to order new one. CVA thought is the #1 place i always look to when im wanting a new rifle.
But back to Randy! Every forum i run into where this guy has chatted, he's been banned from. So you got my take on what i think of his cva reviews.

Thanks for the quick reply, Jake.
Please remember, I ain't the one calling them junk, I'm the one asking if it's true or not. There's alot of experience on these forums and I'm trying to glean some.

I was just using a little humor, plus if we get fontier gander fired up we will be entertained for a while (don't hate me FG, I just know how you feel about your CVAs). I own a TC Omega which I love, and I also own a CVA Kodiak which I love as well. I think they are VERY close as far as quality and accuracy. I am also a newb and just started a little over a month ago, but you can learn alot by buying a gun, reading stuff here, and shooting alot.

I just bought a CVA Bobcat upon being told that there was basically nothing more perfect for a first timer at the price I got it at by several guys on here.
You stole that gun you lucky devil. That is the gun I really wanted for the price you paidbut I ended up with the Kodiak. So I guess I can't complain too much.
