ML Preference Poll
 

Conversation Post...

This poll has been running on Graybeard's forum for several months, came on in 10-24-2010. Thought the results were indicative so I thought I would share over here.



I am surprised that there is such a wide split between TC and CVA, i would have bet that CVA was gaining more ground than what is shown. But also remember this was only 103 votes on a very large forum.

yeah it depend who shoots what on the forums.

We all know most of my members shoot CVA so its just going to be different on every forum you go to.

I didn't see that poll or vote in it, but the results don't surprise me. I'd vote T/C without a doubt, and about 85% of the guys I hunt with highly prefer T/C. 2 of them use CVA's, and the others use Knights with one guy that has a NEF thrown in.

I totally agree with your assessment, but I would say that this particular forum (Graybeard's) or even this forum is so large and diverse that i doubt that any one group of shooters are drawn to it as they might be to yours.

I wonder how that poll would come out on the dwb forum?

Savage ml10

You got to remember that when that poll started Knight wasn't really back in the game yet.I wouldn't be surprised to see knight move up in the poll now

I wonder what makes up OTHER? Whites?

I would bet it would White's, Nef's, older Remingtons

Savages would be other. And then you have Lymans.. there are a lot of brands of rifle out there.

You might be surprised. Remington SML conversions are really hot right now and many people prefer them to the Savage. SMI conversions for NEFs and T/C Encores are also very popular. Most break action 45/70s can be easily and cheaply converted to 45s within 2 week turn around time.

Im on Dougs and Savage wouldn't be my choice in a poll that included them unless it had a lot of mods. Rems have a much stronger aftermarket too.

Jon, please don't make me laugh ok!it's obvious why there are so many CVA shooters on your site lmao.anyone who shoots one and looking for a M/L site would naturally be attracted to yours. although i must say i like the site and all the good information and members on it.along with the fact those Accura's and optima's are tack drivers. Ray

Actually, if you look at the active members on jons site there is quite the mix starting and there are a couple that have a couple different brands including cva,tc, and knight. I would agree that a cva shooter would naturally be attracted to the site though.

IMO: The question is misleading. How many of those polled actually owned a particular brand of gun?

From my perusal of big stores like Cabela's, Sportsman's Warehouse, Gander Mountain, and Bass Pro its evident the Spanish made guns available for sale vastly outnumber those made by TC.

If you believed the online polls, there are about 20 million members of the NRA. Fact is there are about four million NRA members.

I have owned CVA, Knight and several T/C and I have to agree that T/C is the better gun. I will not even buy anything else now.

My all time favorite blk powder gun is a Ruger Old Army though

hehe, wrong thread,

.

Another vote for TC.

You might be suprised at what shows up under other. Like the custom built Hawkens and Kentucky rifles and the Underhammers.
