I have read the Wakeman report. Very interesting stuff. Old stuff mind you. But interesting. So pardon me if I don't read it again.
As for the new CVA rifles. I own an Optima. I shoot the Optima and found it accurate, easy to clean, easy to take apart, and a real pleasure to shoot. So the question is, do I fear for my safety shooting it. If I did, I wouldn't shoot it. If you do, don't shoot it. Its that simple.
