They don't really have a choice.... if they wanna sell guns! LOL!

Of course, if CVA copied more of the features like the stainless receiver on the Encore, then they would have to raise the price considerably and then they would sink for sure. Honestly, they are decent guns but the only folks here in my region that buy them are the guys that can't pony up the funds to buy the Encore they realy wanted.

All kidding aside, if I couldn't afford an Encore then the Accura would be the one to look at.
