Well I smell a dissatisfied person in d.winsor. One that seems to try to antagonize. We have all answered your question. Barnesaddict has many times said he hasn't owned one nor does he want to but he has set many up for other people. That suggests to anyone with a small bit of intelligence that he has plenty of experience with many different models of CVA rifles. I never owned a hand grenade but in 12 years in the Corps I surely handled quite a few and can give personal experience in their function. You just haven't gotten the answers, or the bans I am thinking, that you seek. You asked me and others to provide proof, which myself and others did, yet you ignore the answers because they go against your little agenda. CVA has been sued for patent infringement 26 times. Settled out of court 18 times and lost the other 8. They have been sued I don't know how many times for safety infractions causing injury to customers which is why Dikar bought Bergara to hopefully stem the bleeding. I personally refuse to deal with shady companies. Mathews Archery courted my dad and my sister to shoot and advertise for them for years. The old man felt about Mathews the same as CVA. Tech thieves claiming bought or flat out stolen innovation as their own. Single cam? Martin. Parallel Limbs? Rigid, Browning, and even junky Oneida beat Mathews to that ridiculous claim. And BowTech slapped them and made them cry for mommy in the PL limb dept. Weighted cam? Bear. Not a single thing about a Mathews bow can be directly attributed to Mathews only. Probably 65% of their so called innovations come directly from Martin. But they are marketing geniuses and know how to throw advertising dollars at the market.
