Muley Hunter

I am somewhat in the same boat as Ron, I previously have owned 4 different CVA and I really should say BPI products, because at one time I think the original CVA campany produced some darn nice side hammer guns. The side hammer, and 3 different inlines that I purchased were all after BPI took over. These rifles were purchased when I first started doing the ML thing and I was a broke college student. Wal-Mart provided me my first opportunities to get into ML's - the rifles were cheap! dirt cheap! as compared to White, TC, Remington, Ruger, Knight and others.

I should say they allowed me to shoot a ML and they were somewhat on the accurate side, in those days I really did not know what ML accuracy was. But, in realality those guns were junk as compared to any of the guns listed above - but they were cheap!

So I go along with Ron's assesment and would write the same thing... "No I don't own a CVA inline and like I said before I won't due to a poor first impression." I would go a step further and say I can not imagine that I would ever own a CVA even though they have come a long ways in their development - except most of their development has been to copy other successful ideals and then incorporate it into their current rifles.

Using foreign labor will always allow you to under sell most anything made in America, and the fact is more and more blue collar jobs are moving and will continue to move off shore as long as the cost of labor and manufacturing is less and the product can be sold to Americans at American prices... Shoot... Romney made millions doing this very thing.
