Well, it's official, I put the CVA Elite Compact in layaway approximately 40 minutes ago. I sure hope I did the right thing. One hand had a hold of the TC Omega and the other the Optima Elite. I've agonized over this for some time now.

This will ultimately be a gun for my kid. As he grows and knows more about this firearm, he can add to it all he wants. I sure hope the boy appreciates it. Of course, dear old dad is going have to give it testrunthisdeer season

I know the Omega is an awesome gun, and trust me, I wanted to say, "Yes, I'll take one of each please". However, there's just not enough dead presidents in my wallet right now. Feel free to sound off.
